In December 2024, a huge, red-hot metal ring fell from the sky and landed in a small village in Kenya. It turned out to be a piece of space junk.

There are millions of pieces of space debris and rubbish floating around in space.
And we’re sending more and more stuff up there. Now it’s not just governments, but private companies like SpaceX and Amazon who are launching satellites. Some reports suggest that by 2030, we could have more than 60,000 active satellites in space. So what happens when they’re no longer needed?
BBC Science reporter Caroline Steel explains why space junk is such a big issue, and how people are trying to get rid of it.
And Wanjiku Chebet Kanjumba, a Kenyan PHD student studying aerospace engineering, tells us about some of the potential solutions, like using nets or lasers.

2006: “There are no known Anglo Saxon settlements in the northwest.” That was being said less than 20 years ago. As a result of pioneering archaeological excavations by a number of local groups, that statement no longer carries any substance.
In this video we set out to try to locate an Anglo Saxon period farmstead settlement on the side of Ingleborough in the Yorkshire Dales. Setting off from the village of Clapham and passing Ingleborough Cave and the impressive Trow Gill on the way, we look at what has been discovered since 2008.
As well as the settlement at Clapham Bottoms, we review what was learnt from excavations at Crummack Dale, along with Brows Pasture and Souther Scales on the other side of the mountain.
With charcoal dating confirming these settlements as dating to the Anglo Saxon period, we are left with questions as to the ethnicity of the people who lived there and what happened to them next, once they abandoned these sites.
Dr. David Johnson’s lecture on the excavations and finds:
• New Light on ‘Anglo-Saxon’ settlement…

Chris Millar’s “Mirthful Miscellanea” took one-and-a-half years to complete, and just about every part is made from scratch.
After he graduated from art school, Chris Millar (previously) worked in a toy store for seven years. “The shop, now defunct, was called Livingstone and Cavell Extraordinary Toys in Calgary, Alberta, Canada,” he tells Colossal. The store carried classics like tin wind-ups, electric trains, dolls, miniature soldiers, and teddy bears.
Millar’s latest extravagantly detailed work was one-and-a-half years in the making and takes inspiration from the joys of toy shops and flea markets. He incorporates resin, acrylic paint, brass, steel, aluminum, electronics, and wood into elaborate kinetic spectacles. Every part of is made from scratch with the exception of a few gears.
“Mirthful Miscellanea” channels an imaginary, fantastical curio shop run by two brothers named Wade and Snyder. “Their portraits can be seen in a few areas of the sculpture,” Millar says. “Wade is an expert in medieval musical instruments and roast chicken, and Snyder in antiquarian circus paraphernalia.”
The piece follows in the footsteps of a work titled “Eclipse at Arc Valley” that incorporates a clockwork mechanism, but this new sculpture further elaborates on the design with a more complex mechanism and a base that emits sound from a music box, two gongs, and six bells.
