Benjamin Fernando
Benjamin Fernando is a postdoctoral researcher at Johns Hopkins University, known for his work in space debris tracking. He recently contributed to a study that proposes a novel method for monitoring space junk re-entering Earth's atmosphere using seismographs. This innovative approach aims to enhance safety by detecting sonic booms generated by debris, which pose environmental and safety risks as they fall towards the planet.
