A study warns that high levels of greenhouse gas emissions could reduce by the end of the century half of the maximum number of satellites that can orbit the Earth safely. The accumulation of these gases in the upper layers of the atmosphere would favor space debris to remain longer,

Climate change is altering conditions in near-Earth space, which could limit the number of satellites that can reliably operate.

A new study finds that climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the planet too
