A dead satellite can become a high-speed hazard in an orbit that is already packed with working spacecraft. That risk is why ...

Researchers are developing a real-life tractor beam, with the goal of pulling defunct satellites out of geostationary orbit to alleviate the space junk problem.

But machinery used on the moon must function in low gravity, a vacuum and amid abrasive lunar dust. It must also survive the two-week lunar night of electronics-killing temperatures that plunge to ...
