Falling space junk is becoming a real-world hazard, and scientists have found a clever new way to track it using instruments ...

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

For a long time, scientists assumed that Earth's water was delivered by asteroids and comets billions of years ago. This ...

As the threat of falling spacecraft increases, using earthquake sensors to detect the effects of their sonic booms could ...

Falling satellites and large orbital debris create massive sonic booms and scientists are using them to track dangerous space ...

Earthquake sensors can detect sonic booms generated by reentering space debris to help track the potentially dangerous ...

Space debris—the thousands of pieces of human-made objects abandoned in Earth's orbit—pose a risk to humans when they fall to ...

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

Long before Earth formed, tiny mineral grains were already drifting through space, forged in the final breaths of dying stars ...

Researchers have discovered that the same sensors used to detect earthquakes are the key to tracking the growing swarm of space junk plummeting toward Earth.

Scientists trace Earth’s long cooling to falling ocean calcium, pulling CO₂ from the air and offering new insight into a greenhouse mystery.
