#MetalPollution from a rocket reentry detected for the first time
Such #pollutants could degrade the ozone layer as #SpaceDebris accumulates and falls to Earth
By Adam Mann, February 25, 2026
Excerpt: "For the first time, scientists have directly observed metal pollutants leaching from a piece of #OrbitalJunk: a #SpaceX rocket as it burned in the atmosphere. Such pollutants can damage the #OzoneLayer, meaning the findings will help monitor potential harms from space debris, researchers report February 19 in Communications Earth and Environment.
"While humans have been launching metal things to orbit for nearly 70 years, the pace has skyrocketed in the past decade. Private companies plan to escalate this in the near future — for instance, #SpaceX ’s #Starlink system, which provides internet to far-flung places, will eventually consist of more than 40,000 satellites in #LowEarthOrbit . Nearly 10,000 are currently orbiting Earth.
"Each piece of equipment has a planned lifetime of about five years, after which it burns up in the upper atmosphere, releasing metals such as #lithium, #aluminum and #copper, all of which may catalyze chemical reactions that destroy ozone and have other adverse effects. A 2023 study found that about 10 percent of #stratospheric particles contain pollutants from burnt-up #satellites and #RocketStages.
"That motivated a research team to see if they could directly trace such particles to a piece of reentering space debris. On February 19, 2025, the researchers observed a cloud of lithium about 100 kilometers above Germany blowing out of a Falcon 9 rocket’s upper stage disintegrating over Ireland and the United Kingdom.
" 'A few hours after the reentry of this rocket, we could see 10 times more lithium than we would have observed otherwise,' says Claudia Stolle, a meteorologist at the Leibniz Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Germany."

Small towns in the #PermianBasin have become a petri dish for the perils of living amid the nation’s largest #OilFields.Jerry Redfern September 15, 2026
Excerpt: "Among various forms of air pollution, the monitoring station measured #radon and the particles that form from its decay. Data in the study showed airborne radiation levels in #LovingNM rising up to five times normal background levels, depending on wind direction.
"Since all readings were taken in one spot, the report’s authors said they could not tie the radiation to a single source. But they pointed to the area’s intense #OilAndGas development, which they said highlights the need for follow-up studies.
"Detlev Helmig, an atmospheric scientist with air quality program Boulder AIR, said,
'The analyses of our monitoring data provide evidence that oil and gas operations in the Loving area are a likely source of atmospheric releases of #radioactivity.' Helmig was an author on the study and helped set up and manage the original monitoring station in Loving."This small town in the Permian Basin is a petri dish for the perils of living amid the oil and gas industry’s most productive oil fields. Hundreds of active oil wells lie within two miles of Loving and another dozen large processing facilities sit within the same sweep. The smell of raw #hydrocarbons regularly fills the hazy air.
'It’s pollution,' said Jackie Onsurez, a Loving resident who ran in the Democratic primary for lieutenant governor. 'You don’t have to be a scientist to wake up and see it’s brown and it’s not dirt.'"The study says radiation sources include oil and gas industry emissions 'such as #GasFlares at active well pads, gas-fired compressors at midstream sites, and produced water ponds.'

WTF! #Navajo Reporter #MarleyShebala Violently Arrested by #NavajoPolice, After Filing Ethics Complaint on Navajo President #BuuNygren
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, October 16, 2025
WINDOW ROCK, Navajo Nation -- "Navajo Police were sent today to evict Marley Shebala, Dine' Zuni Pueblo reporter, from her home. Marley, 73, screamed in pain as she was arrested by police. Marley had filed an ethics complaint against Navajo President Buu Nygren, and was reporting on the ongoing #corruption in the Navajo tribal government.
" 'I am 73 years old, and they have me handcuffed in my home with my daughter, our Navajo police, to
serve and protect' Marley says, as she continues to livestream. Navajo police used a locksmith to enter her home, before the violent arrest."Read more:

#NavajoNation Targeted Again for Sacrifice Zone: '#Energy Companies Preying on the People'
#Diné ask: Why is the Navajo Nation allowing energy companies to prey on communities and individuals?
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, May 23, 2024
"Dine' on the Navajo Nation are now targeted with a push to revitalize dirty coal energy, and a hydropower project that would pump precious water from their aquifer. Dine' question why the Navajo Nation government is allowing energy companies to prey on the communities and individuals.
"#LouiseBenally of #BigMountain [#KleeBenally's aunt] said the bottom line is greed. 'They want to eat up everything but, don't know that even their lives depend on it too. Poisoning the natural cycle will come back and destroy them too.'
"The new stampede of parasitic energy companies to the Navajo Nation comes at the same time that #radioactive #uranium trucks, covered only with tarps, are traveling across the Navajo Nation, from the #GrandCanyon uranium mine to the mill in the #WhiteMesaUte community in Utah.
"At the same time, more than 500 #UraniumMines, and scattered radioactive debris, remain on the Navajo Nation, and was never cleaned up by the U.S. government. Dirty coal mines and power plants left the legacy of death and #ForcedRelocation.
Navajo Council Plans Meeting on Revitalizing Coal Industry
"Citing #Trump's push for new #CoalMining, the #NavajoNationCouncil plans to hold a public hearing on
revitalizing the coal industry.
"The Navajo Nation Council announced the public hearing, stating that on April 8 President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order entitled, 'Reinvigorating America’s #BeautifulCleanCoal Industry
and Amending Executive Order 14241' aimed at reversing past federal policies, to boost the coal industry and to strengthen the country’s national energy security, according to the White House."The public hearing is scheduled in Forest Lake Chapter on Friday, May 30. Louise Benally and her family spent their lives battling #PeabodyCoal and resisting forced relocation at Big Mountain on #BlackMesa. She said what Trump is doing is another chapter in the assault on the land and people.
" 'Pl 93-531 is a law created by #BarryGoldwater to target our rights to water and land base to be taken away. He developed that law so, with what Trump is trying to do is no different.'" 'They want to eat up everything but, don't know that even their lives depend on it too. Poisoning the natural cycle will come back and destroy them too.'
" 'The American political system is not our government as traditional people which is where all our modern day problems come from in the form of an endless greed to keep eating up the earth and the natural resources.'
"Louise questioned Navajo Nation President #BuuNygren's support of Trump and coal mining in Washington, and Nygren's agreement for uranium trucks to cross the Navajo Nation. 'The Navajo Nation government is at a crossroads. Buu has been taken by Trump, and the people he is supposed to be responsible for are in question.'
" 'He has been taken into the bag of greed -- uranium and coal yet, there is no water. We want accountability.' "

"Louise questioned Navajo Nation President #BuuNygren's support of Trump and coal mining in Washington, and Nygren's agreement for uranium trucks to cross the Navajo Nation. 'The Navajo Nation government is at a crossroads. Buu has been taken by Trump, and the people he is supposed to be responsible for are in question.'
" 'He has been taken into the bag of greed -- uranium and coal yet, there is no water. We want accountability.' "

#FlagstaffAZ: Radioactive #Uranium Truck Driver in Medical Distress: Endangerment on the Haul Route
by Shannonlynn Chester,,May 8, 2025, #CensoredNews
Excerpt: "The Navajo Nation, law enforcement and the mainstream media downplayed the risks today to Navajos and everyone on the haul route.
"This comes after Navajo President #BuuNygren cut a secret deal with #EnergyFuels for the uranium transport trucks to pass through the Navajo Nation.
Nygren released a statement about the sick truck driver. Nygren said the Navajo Nation EPA coordinated with the Coconino County Sheriff's Office and the Flagstaff Fire Department. The Fire Department conducted radiation scans on the truck and said that the radiation levels at the location were within safe limits."Three other uranium ore trucks at the designated inspection site were allowed to pass and continue to the White Mesa Mill, Nygren said.
Energy Fuels notified the Navajo Nation EPA at 11:40 a.m. that the fourth truck -- whose driver was sick -- returned back to the Pinyon Plain Mine, Nygren said.
Coconino County Sheriff Bret Axlund said the truck driver had "flu-like symptoms" and refused medical transport from the site. An ambulance was called to the site, just north of Flagstaff, in the area of Hwy 89 and Townsend Winona Road."Earlier, the Navajo Nation Council said President Nygren entered into a secret deal with Energy Fuels, without the knowledge or consent of the #NavajoCouncil, to allow the uranium ore trucks to pass through the Navajo Nation from the #GrandCanyon mine enroute to Utah.
"More than 500 uranium mines and scattered radioactive waste remain on the Navajo Nation, which the U.S. never cleaned up after the #coldwar, resulting in widespread cancer for Dine'."Read more:
