know, the first time that this modulation has been used from space, as well as SSTV. Although its reception seemed impossible, a station located in Delft, the Netherlands, confirmed the reception and decoding of FT-8, as well as the reception of SSTV in orbits
3 and 4 that the stage carried out over Europe.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Chinese Long March <span class="SpellE">6A</span> rocket broke apart in low-Earth orbit and formed a debris field with hundreds of pieces, confirmed by U.S. Space Command. “<span class="SpellE">USSPACECOM</span> has observed no immediate threats and continues
to conduct routine conjunction assessments to support the safety and sustainability of the space domain,” a U.S. Space Command spokesperson said. NASA public affairs officer Rob Margetta said there was no immediate threat to the International Space Station.
Satellite monitoring company <span class="SpellE">LeoLabs</span> estimated there were at least 700 fragments created by the rocket’s break-up. While there’s no immediate danger, it’s possible that the fragments could eventually descend to where the space station
and SpaceX’s <span class="SpellE">Starlink</span> satellites are located. Slingshot Aerospace said debris from the rocket poses “a significant hazard to LEO [low-Earth orbit] constellations below 800 km altitude.” More information at<a href="https://tinyurl.com/ANS-224-Debris"><font color="blue"><span style="color:blue">
