CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- As more and more space junk comes crashing down, a new study shows how earthquake monitors can better ...

Space debris—the thousands of pieces of human-made objects abandoned in Earth's orbit—pose a risk to humans when they fall to ...

Earthquake sensors can detect sonic booms generated by reentering space debris to help track the potentially dangerous ...

Old satellites and other space junk fall toward Earth every day, and the shock waves they create could be used to track their trajectories, according to new research.

Now, scientists have devised a clever new way to predict where the pieces may land.

As the threat of falling spacecraft increases, using earthquake sensors to detect the effects of their sonic booms could ...

Objects in orbit that fall to Earth can pose a risk to life and infrastructure. Research outlines a new method to follow their paths.

Falling satellites and large orbital debris create massive sonic booms and scientists are using them to track dangerous space junk.
