Space Particle Collision Raises Uncertainty Over Spain’s New Military Satellite
Spain’s military communications satellite, SpainSat NG-2, was struck by a space particle while moving toward geostationary orbit. The incident occurred at an unusually high altitude, and the damage remains unknown. Operators have activated contingency plans as engineers assess whether the €2 billion mission can still be completed.

Self-Driving Cars Could Prevent Over 1 Million Road Injuries Across the U.S. by 2035
A study shows self-driving cars could prevent more than 1 million U.S. road injuries by 2035, cutting traffic-related accidents by 3.6%. Researchers modelled multiple adoption and safety scenarios, highlighting the potential of AVs to reduce human-error crashes. Future studies on highways are needed to fully assess the public health benefits of aut...

Arctic Report Card Flags Fast Warming, Record Heat and New Risks
The 2025 Arctic Report Card shows the Arctic is warming faster than expected, with record heat, shrinking ice, stronger storms, and rusting rivers. Scientists warn that rising temperatures are reshaping ecosystems, threatening water safety, and increasing risks for Arctic communities. The changes highlight how quickly climate impacts are unfolding,...

Magnetic Control of Lithium Enables Safer, High-Capacity “Dream Battery” Without Explosion Risk
POSTECH researchers have developed a “dream battery” using magnetic control of lithium to prevent dendrite formation. The hybrid anode stores lithium safely, offers four times the capacity of graphite, and sustains stable cycling, creating a safer high-energy solution for EVs and energy storage.

Failing Starlink Satellite Photographed in Orbit Before Fiery Reentry
A SpaceX Starlink satellite suffered a major in-orbit failure in December 2025, losing communication after venting its fuel tank and beginning an uncontrolled orbital descent. The malfunction caused the satellite’s altitude to drop and produced minor debris, prompting close tracking by SpaceX, NASA and the U.S. Space Force. High-resolution imager...

Scientists Find Clock on Mars Runs 477 Microseconds Faster Than Earth
A new study by NIST physicists shows that clocks on Mars run about 477 microseconds faster per day than identical clocks on Earth. The difference comes from Mars’s weaker gravity, orbital eccentricity, and gravitational influences across the solar system. Though tiny, this daily time lead will pose challenges for future Mars navigation and commun...
