Earth’s orbit is turning into a cosmic traffic jam — and AI may be our best hope to manage it. In this EcoAero article, Heer Patel highlights how Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are transforming Space Situational Awareness by predicting collisions, enabling autonomous satellite maneuvers, and identifying hazardous debris with stunning accuracy.

High above us, thin white streaks trail jets across the sky—but these contrails may be doing more harm than we realize. In this article, Aviraj Dastidar explores how a small percentage of flights are responsible for a disproportionately large climate impact through contrail-induced cirrus clouds.

In this article, Aadit Ramadas examines recent high-profile aviation incidents and questions whether flight safety is declining or if increased awareness and media coverage are amplifying concerns. Despite stable incident rates per flight, rising global air traffic and staffing shortages contribute to more occurrences. The article highlights social media’s role in shaping perceptions but emphasizes aviation remains statistically safe.

On World Asteroid Day, Heer Patel explores how humanity is confronting the potential threat of asteroid impacts. The article highlights the science behind asteroid detection, the importance of planetary defense systems like NASA’s NEO Surveyor and the DART mission, and emerging technologies such as solar sailing nanobots and space-based lasers.

Pushing the boundaries of science and uniting nations, space exploration offers remarkable benefits—but at an environmental cost. In this article, Harsh Patel weighs the impacts of ozone depletion and carbon emissions from rockets against the technological breakthroughs, global cooperation, and inspiration that space missions provide.

A look at how AI-driven decision frameworks are optimizing satellite collision avoidance in low-Earth orbit, with new approaches that balance fuel use and safety to reduce long-term congestion and collision risk.

A look at how policy frameworks for open data, space situational awareness, and lunar governance are shaping the future of space sustainability, emphasizing the need for international cooperation, transparency, and responsible behavior in orbit and cislunar space.

A detailed look at innovative detection methods for small-scale space debris using electromagnetic signals from hypervelocity collisions, enhancing orbital safety through improved situational awareness.
