Space debris falls faster on Earth as the Sun gets bigger. A study has just confirmed this after 36 years of data. The discovery changes the rules of security in orbit. The Sun crosses a precise threshold that precipitates the fall of space debris Space debris in low orbit does not all fall at the same speed. Their trajectory depends to a large extent on the activity of our star. So far, no one had quantified precisely when this influence became…
