Future Space
NASA’s Neowise satellite, was once tasked with tracking asteroids and comets that could threaten Earth. After more than 15 years in orbit, Neowise is set to re-enter Earth’s atmosphere and burn up. Initially launched in 2009, its mission evolved, and it provided crucial data for planetary defense. As solar activity increases, Neowise’s mission ends, but its discoveries pave the way for future space defense technologies. Listen to learn more about the satellite’s journey and its scientific contributions.
