In April 2024, a Chinese spacecraft broke apart in the skies over Southern California, creating a dramatic fireball and ...

Scientists found a new way to track falling space debris using earthquake sensors, helping improve safety and response time.

Abstract: Consistency in 3D tracking is critical for vision-based autonomous driving systems. However, most existing multi-object tracking (MOT) methods are confronted with the limitation: detectors ...

As global numbers of space launches relentlessly skyrocket, so, too, does the amount of dangerous space debris that reenters the atmosphere and falls back to Earth, raising the odds that, sooner or ...

Old satellites and other space junk fall toward Earth every day, and the shock waves they create could be used to track their ...

Physically, sound is just pressure moving through a medium. If you harness that pressure correctly, you can actually push things around using nothing but sound. That's exactly what researchers at ...

The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS was discovered on July 1, 2025. There is currently no evidence to suggest that it is anything other than a natural astrophysical object. However, given the small ...

A new mathematical equation describes the distribution of different fragment sizes when an object breaks. Remarkably, the distribution is the same for everything from bubbles to spaghetti. When you ...
