Some
19、 of them, like the camera, were lost by astronauts while they did work outside their spaceship. But much of the space junk is made up of little pieces of things that were once bigger objects, until they struck each other and broke apart. Some things we send into space fall back toward the earth and
20、burn up in the atmosphere. But larger pieces sometimes survive the extreme heat and hit the ground or the ocean at great speeds. So there is always concern that something may fall from the sky and do some harm. But space junk falling on housetops (屋顶 ) is not the biggest worry. Scientists are concer

22、to clean up the space around our planet Marco Castronuovo, an Italian researcher, talks about sending a satellite into space that would get very close to some of the larger pieces of space junk. The satellite would connect a small rocket to the useless object. When the rocket explodes, it pushes the
23、 junk into a lower and slower orbit, nearer the earth. After a time, the junk burns up in the atmosphere. Mr. Castronuovo has proposed (提议 ) using a number of small satellites with robotic arms. One arm would catch the space junk, and another arm would connect the rocket. He imagines that each satel

31、nlight. But according to horticulture (园艺 ) educator Susan Rose from Colorado State University, it turns out leaves dont really change color at all. “The fall colors are actually there all along,” she said. “But they are covered by the green chlorophyll. As the chlorophyll stops being produced, the
32、other colors can shine through.” The kind of color that the leaves are going to change to is determined by the plants genetic (基因的 ) background. In some places, the leaves start changing color in September before autumn even officially begins. In other places, they dont change until late October or
33、even November. Some scientists say the leaves have been changing color later than usual in recent years. And they think global warming has something to do with that. In one study, researchers found that the growing season in the Northern Hemisphere was nearly a week longer, on average, in 2008 than
34、it was in 1982. And a professor from Harvard University found that the leaves, west of Boston, Massachusetts, are changing color about three days later than they used to.
