The 590-kilogram (1,300 lbs) Van Allen Probe A crashed down in the East Pacific Ocean near the Galapagos Islands at 10:37 GMT (06:37 EDT) yesterday morning. NASA says it expected most of the spacecraft to burn up in the atmosphere, but some parts may have survived re-entry and reached the surface.

Back in 2022, NASA deliberately smashed a spacecraft into a small asteroid'moonlet' that orbited a larger space rock. The probe, called Dart, successfully changed the path of the moonlet, called Dimorphos, around its parent asteroid, Didymos. The mission was hailed as the first-ever successful demonstration of planetary defence, proving humanity can alter an asteroid's trajectory. But now, scientists have revealed the test also knocked both asteroids off their regular orbit around the Sun.


Could AI Data Centers Be Moved to Outer Space?

WIRED

Could AI Data Centers Be Moved to Outer Space? Massive data centers for generative AI are bad for the Earth. Data centers are being built at a frantic pace all over the world, driven by the AI boom. These facilities consume staggering amounts of electricity. By 2028, AI servers alone may use as much energy as 22 percent of US households.


Orbital AI data centers could work, but they might ruin Earth in the process

Engadget

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2026 is Feb. 25 A single collision could cause a cascading effect in orbit. Elon Musk's plan to launch millions of AI satellites could be disastrous for the planet. At the start of the month, Elon Musk announced that two of his companies -- SpaceX and xAI -- were merging, and would jointly launch a constellation of 1 million satellites to operate as orbital data centers. Musk's reputation might suggest otherwise, but according to experts, such a plan isn't a complete fantasy. However, if executed at the scale suggested, some of them believe it would have devastating effects on the environment and the sustainability of low Earth Earth orbit.


Atmospheric pollution caused by space junk could be a huge problem

New Scientist

After a Falcon 9 rocket stage burned up in the atmosphere, vaporised lithium and other metals drifted over Europe. A SpaceX rocket that burned up after re-entering the atmosphere unleashed a plume of vaporised metals over Europe, a type of pollution that is expected to increase as spacecraft and satellites multiply. The upper stage of a Falcon 9, which is designed to splash down in the Pacific Ocean for possible re-use, lost control due to engine failure and fell from orbit over the north Atlantic in February 2025. We're finally solving the puzzle of how clouds will affect our climate People across Europe saw fiery debris streaking through the sky, some of which crashed behind a warehouse in Poland. Seeing the news, Robin Wing at the Leibniz Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Germany and his colleagues turned on their lidar, an instrument for atmospheric sensing.

Figure 5: Comparison of GenStat architecture to selected graph generative models. This proof uses two properties of LDP: composability and immunity to post-processing [2]. Figure 6 illustrates the PGM of Randomized algorithms. The GGM parameters are a function of the perturbed graph statistics as learning input. The implementation can be easily extended to directed graphs. A statistics-based GGM that takes the degree sequence as sufficient statistics [5].
