Megaconstellations' End-of-Life Reentries Create Uncertain Casualty and Environmental Risks Operators plan thousands of satellites to deorbit at end of life to limit orbital debris, but recent analyses and a Harvard Salata Institute release warn design‑for‑demise outcomes are uncertain. Partial burn‑up can leave surviving fragments and atmospheric deposits, creating ground casualty and environmental risks as constellations scale.

Space Force probes asteroid mining: why deep‑space, dim objects matter The U.S. Space Force is examining asteroid mining and the role of dim, deep‑space objects to assess implications for national security, logistics and space‑domain awareness. Reporting focuses on what draws military attention to off‑Earth resources and the challenges of detecting and tracking faint targets.

China joins race to build orbital data centers with new five‑year plan Beijing unveiled a five‑year plan to develop space‑based data centers, formalizing state support as commercial and national actors compete to host cloud and AI compute in orbit. U.S. companies are also pursuing solar‑powered orbital data centers as terrestrial power limits and demand push compute off Earth.

Europe warns national space initiatives risk fragmenting collective launcher and satellite programmes European Commission officials are pressing for greater Brussels involvement as multiple member states launch parallel national space and launcher programmes. ESA and EU leaders warn the surge of national initiatives risks fragmenting collective projects — from new launchers to satellite constellations — just as geopolitical tensions demand greater European coherence.
