Starlink and Astronomy

Starlink has faced criticism from astronomers due to its satellites interfering with ground-based telescope observations. The reflective surfaces of satellites create streaks in astronomical images, affecting research. SpaceX is working on mitigation strategies, such as using non-reflective coatings and adjusting satellite orientation to reduce brightness. Collaborative efforts between astronomers and SpaceX aim to find solutions […]

Starlink and Space Debris

With thousands of Starlink satellites in orbit, concerns about space debris are rising. SpaceX employs advanced collision-avoidance technology and designs its satellites to deorbit safely at the end of their lifespan. However, the increasing number of satellites raises questions about long-term space sustainability. Regulatory bodies and international space agencies are monitoring the situation to ensure […]
