Russia may have just shot down its own satellite, creating a huge debris cloud [Updated]
The seven astronauts and cosmonauts onboard the International Space Station sheltered inside their respective spacecraft, a Crew Dragon and Soyuz, on Monday morning as the orbiting laboratory passed through an unexpected debris field.
This was not a pre-planned collision avoidance maneuver in low Earth orbit, in which the station would use onboard propulsion to move away. Rather, the situation required the astronauts to quickly take shelter.
(personal thoughts: Space pollution is a growing issue and a field in more need...)

Indestructible 'Black Box' will record our planet's demise in minute detail
By Cameron Duke
The disaster recorder aims to set us on a better path by watching our every move.
...
The solar-powered vault will be roughly the length of a school bus and the shape of an upside-down curb stop, and the entire thing will be encased in 3-inch-thick (7.5 centimeters) steel designed to withstand catastrophe, just as an airplane's black box is built to withstand an impact. And just like a black box is tucked away in the safest part of a plane, Earth's Black Box will be placed in the most secure location on Earth, which is Tasmania, apparently. When it goes online, Earth's Black Box will be filled with hard drives recording and storing climate-related information, ABC News Australia reported.
