 Space Space debris poses growing threat to space satellites...


Satellites are on threats that are increasing day by day claimed by space scientists.

What is Space Debris?

Debris are small particles that are from something that are destroyed, or from accidents. Space debris are small particles available in space. These are may be satellites, rockets, etc. broken parts or any other material such as micrometeorites.

These Debris are in the range of 1cm to much bigger quantity moving with 22,000 miles per hour that can cause the same effect on collision as a 200 kg object gives on moving 100km per hour on the surface of earth. These debris pose a threat to all the satellites in space which supports very advanced works such as military, aviation, etc. collision between these debris with satellites create a huge misfunctioning of satellites and even broken down in pieces. Every country concerned about the phenomenon of chain collision in between debris that can cause increase the chance of collision with satellites.

Many organizations try to tracking these debris in space, bigger (more than 10cm) debris are able to track easily, but smaller (less than 1cm) are difficult to track. The work can be managed by super-computers. Right now, only US, Russia, Europe has these facilities to track these small debris.


India has started their work in this field with the help of IIIT-DELHI institute to track the debris and analyze it, finding the probability of collision in debris helps in safeguarding the satellites. The project is estimated to be competed in 2-years with funding by National Super Computing Mission (NSM).

Google Earth time-lapse feature winds clock back 37 years...

 Google Earth time-lapse feature winds clock back 37 years... Google Earth has launched a time-lapse feature that lets users wind back the clock and see how the world has changed over several decades. This is the new feature that took data from more than 24 million pictures clicked by satellites since 1984, i.e., for 37 years to let people scroll down through time. It allows people to see, the deforestation in amazon, melting of huge glaciers in this time interval. The major sudden change in the environment is from 3 decades, where a rapid globalization takes place, a rapid boost in technology and come up with a huge environmental change. Google tries to raise awareness about climate change on earth and its causes so that people can understand how their activities destroying the environment. People can create a better way of living so that Earth environment can be human friendly. Google claims that, this can’t be possible if they can’t get the videos and images from the con...
