Supercomputers simulated the orbits of 1 million satellites between Earth and the moon — and less than 10% survived

If 1 million satellites were positioned at different points between Earth and the moon, less than 10% would survive long enough to be worth the hassle of sending them up in the first place, new supercomputer simulations suggest. This is not as disastrous ...

This new quasi-moon is an Arjuna asteroid — one of a cluster of more than 100 small bodies with orbits almost identical to Earth’s. These asteroids move around the Sun in almost the same orbit as Earth, with small eccentricity and minimal inclination, so that they appear to dance near us for years, indeed decades.
