Google’s Space-Based AI Data Centre Plan Faces Collision Risks in an Increasingly Crowded Orbit
Google’s Project Suncatcher aims to build a solar-powered AI data center in space. Experts warn the crowded Sun-synchronous orbit poses high collision risks from space debris, and without autonomous safeguards, even a single impact could trigger a cascade, scattering millions of fragments. This project underscores the urgent need for orbital debr...

Mysterious 1950s Sky Flashes Re-Examined in New Astronomical Study
Thousands of unexplained sky flashes captured in 1950s Palomar Observatory photos are being reanalysed. Scientists suspect they may have resulted from sunlight reflecting off early satellites or atmospheric changes after nuclear tests, which increased flash rates by up to 68%. Still, photographic artifacts remain a possible explanation.
