The active satellites currently orbiting Earth have to be careful not to hit the 9,500 tons of debris in space, as well as spacecraft like the International Space Station (ISS). Astroscale has been operating its ELSA-d mission to demonstrate a proof of concept for its ELSA technology, removing space debris from orbit.

AZoQuantum speaks with Jennifer Burt, Jennifer is part of an international team of astronomers that have discovered an exoplanet, known as TOI-1231 b. The exoplanet is a roughly Neptune-sized planet that has been determined as having a cool atmosphere, which completes an orbit of its parent star in just 24 days.
