Welcome back to Tech Vault, today on the channel we are going to check out how Scientists Calculated The Probability of Falling Space Junk Killing Somebody + other related news. The chance of someone being killed by space junk falling from the sky may seem ridiculously tiny. After all, nobody has yet died from such an accident, though there have been instances of injury and damage to property. But given that we are launching an increasing number of satellites, rockets and probes into space, do we need to start taking the risk more seriously? A new study, published in Nature Astronomy, has estimated the chance of causalities from falling rocket parts over the next ten years.
Every minute of every day, debris rains down on us from space – a hazard we are almost completely unaware of. The microscopic particles from asteroids and comets patter down through the atmosphere to settle unnoticed on the Earth's surface – adding up to around 40,000 tonnes of dust each year. While this is not a problem for us, such debris can do damage to spacecraft – as was recently reported for the James Webb space telescope. Occasionally, a larger sample arrives as a meteorite, and maybe once every 100 years or so, a body tens of meters across manages to drive through the atmosphere to excavate a crater. Meanwhile, When and where will China's big rocket debris fall to Earth this weekend? A big Chinese rocket body will likely crash back to Earth tomorrow (July 30), but nobody knows exactly when or where. The 25-ton (22.5 metric tons) core stage of a Long March 5B rocket will reenter Earth's atmosphere tomorrow at 2:05 p.m. EDT (1805 GMT), plus or minus five hours, according to the latest forecast by researchers at The Aerospace Corporation(opens in new tab). The booster has spent less than a week in orbit; it lofted Wentian, the second module for China's Tiangong space station, on July 24. Watch till the end for more details on The Probability of Falling Space Junk Killing Somebody and other related news.
