Did You Know? 🌌 On March 17, 1958, Vanguard 1, the first solar-powered satellite, was launched into orbit. Not just a milestone in space exploration, it also holds the title as the oldest man-made object still circling our planet! Vanguard 1's legacy continues to inspire advancements in satellite technology today. While its batteries lasted just 20 days, its solar cells kept the satellite powered for seven years. Vanguard I stopped sending signals back to Earth in 1964, but since then, researchers have still used it to glean insight into how the sun, moon and Earth's atmosphere affect orbiting satellites.  #SpaceExploration #Vanguard1 #TechHistory

🚀The Hidden Threat:- Growing Problem of Space Junk📑 🌃Our orbit around Earth is getting crowded with old satellites, rocket parts, and other debris flying around at super-fast speeds. This space junk is a real danger to operational spacecraft ️, like our GPS and communication satellites, and could crash into them, disrupting important services we rely on every day.✨ 🛰️ The amount of space junk is only growing as we launch more things into space, and it's becoming a pressing issue for the space industry. But there is good news! Scientists are working on solutions like space vacuums and harpoons to clean up space junk.⌛ 📑Let's discuss what we can do to ensure a sustainable future for space exploration and keep our orbit clear! ♻️ #SpaceJunk #SpaceSustainability #SpaceExploration #ScienceOverse
