When Rocket increased and the rebound of flight travel was released, researchers have identified anxious reality. With a 26 % probability each year, the fragments of the universe can pass through a busy flight corridor and force a wide range of flight destruction.
Research at British Colombia University The probability of actually hitting the aircraft is 1/140,000 every year, but the frequency of space junk that enters the atmosphere of the earth has increased the frequency of the aircraft, which makes it difficult to close the airspace. We are clarifying that we are forced.
“The recent explosion of SPACEX STARSHIP immediately after its release explains UBC’s master and a doctoral student in an interdisciplinary researcher,” Authorities have set up an aircraft “keepout” zone. Many of them had to turn and divert the flight route. “
This study threatened that 20 -ton rocket shards would enter the atmosphere of Southern Europe again, and the Spanish and French aviation officials had to close a part of the airspace, following a specific association. I got sex.
The problem is intensifying due to the release of 258 successful rockets in 2024 and the re -entry of the recorded 120 untrained rocket debris last year. Currently, more than 2,300 rockets are on track, and everything is destined to return to the planet.
“But why do authorities have to make these decisions in the first place? Dr. Aaron Borelie, an associate professor of the UBC physics and astronomical bureau, claims: Exporting risks to airlines and passengers.
This situation creates a dilemma of the aviation authorities. If the universe’s fragments may have fallen, you may face risk continuing flights, or the route conversion and the economic and logistics tasks.
The solution exists in the form of a controlled re -entry. Here, the rockets are designed to safely crash the remote areas after use. However, according to Dr. Michaelvayers, a professor of UBC politics, this correction requires international cooperation. “The countries and companies that launch satellites do not spend money to improve the rocket design unless they all need to do so,” he points out.
This study emphasizes the risks, especially for areas with high traffic. In Denver, Colorado, there is about one aircraft per 18 square kilometers at the peak, with the highest air transport density. Examining this peak density of only 10 % of the peak density, as in the Vancouver Seattle airspace, researchers have found a 26 % annual rocket debris.
Since both space launch and empty journey continue to increase, the number of passengers is expected to rise by almost 7 % in 2025, so the intersection of air safety and the universe needs to be urgent international attention. We will present the increasing challenges to increase.
