Greenhouse Emissions Threaten The Future of Low Earth Orbit, Scientists Warn

The continued release of greenhouse gases into Earth's atmosphere could increase the longevity of space junk in low Earth orbit, a new paper reveals. Under a high-emissions scenario, this could mean a sharp reduction in the amount of satellites that can safely operate in low Earth orbit by 2100 – putting significant limitations on what humanity can put up there,
