BSA numbers fell from 1.97 million in 2019 to 1.12 million in 2020 and about 762,000 later, while Girl Scouts dropped from 1.4 million in 2019-20 to just over 1 million.

In Joshua Tree a team tests a drag device for deorbiting satellites to curb space junk that threatens Earth orbit and future missions. The Alchemy satellite by Millennium Space Systems is tested against a control craft Augury to gauge how quickly debris can be burned up, amid 23,000 pieces larger than a softball and hundreds of thousands of smaller fragments.
