When the Hubble Space Telescope was launched in 1990, there were about 470 artificial satellites orbiting Earth. By 2000, that number doubled. But by 2023, the rising number has grown almost exponentially to nearly 8,000 satellites. For Hubble this means that satellites photobomb about 10% of its exposures on celestial targets.

So far, astrophysicists have only detected gravitational waves from binary systems - the mergers of either two black holes, two neutron stars or one of each. Although astrophysicists theoretically should be able to detect gravitational waves from a single, non-binary source, they have yet to uncover these elusive signals.

NASA, SpaceX launch solar arrays, cargo to space station
Monday, 05 June 2023 16:37
Following a successful launch of NASA's SpaceX 28th commercial resupply services mission, two new solar arrays, science investigations, and supplies are on their way to the International Space Station.
Carrying more than 7,000 pounds of cargo to the orbiting laboratory, the uncrewed SpaceX Dragon spacecraft launched on the company's Falcon 9 rocket at 11:47 a.m. EDT, Monday, June 5, from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The cargo spacecraft is scheduled to autonomously dock with the space-facing port on the station's Harmony module at approximately 5:50 a.m. and remain at the station for about 21 days.
