A network of Starlink satellites designed primarily for internet connectivity is giving scientists a new way to study one of the hardest-to-observe regions of Earth's atmosphere. According to a study by researchers at Kyoto University, publicly available orbital data from roughly 1,200 Starlink satellites were used to estimate the density of the thermosphere at an altitude of about 482 kilometres.

Sophie Adenot's first spacewalk was supposed to be about replacing an antenna. Instead, the 18 August outing left the French astronaut with two milestones to carry back inside the International Space Station: becoming the first French woman to walk in space, and an unfinished repair that will require another trip outside.

The sky above Earth's observatories could soon look very different as satellite constellations expand, potentially leaving astronomers with less usable data. Is there a solution?

Researchers at the University of Adelaide have developed a new method to produce hydrazine from urea using electricity and sodium chloride, opening up a potentially greener route to a chemical used in rocket fuels, pharmaceuticals and emerging energy technologies.
