The Department of Astronomy and Space, in cooperation with the Continuing Education Unit at the College of Science of the University of Baghdad, organized a lecture entitled “Satellite Waste in Space” in the presence of a number of students, lecturers and those concerned with physical affairs.

   The lecture presented by Dr. Fouad Mahmoud Abdullah aimed to define satellite waste, which began as a term for space satellite waste from a group of waste resulting from the remains of satellites floating in Earth orbit, in their first appearance in the middle of the twentieth century, coinciding with the beginning of the space race. When the Soviet Union launched Sputnik-1, the first artificial satellite in history to go into orbit around the Earth, on October 4, 1957.
