A new study shows that, at its worst, the Starlink satellite network creates enough noise to hamstring radio astronomy.

Starlink interference is swamping protected frequencies, threatening astronomers' ability to unlock secrets of the early universe.

Starlink's impact on astronomy Within days of the first 60-satellite Starlink launch, skywatchers spotted a linear pearl string of lights as the spacecraft whizzed overhead in the early morning.

Scientists report that emissions from Elon Musk’s Starlink network now appear in nearly 30% of certain telescope images, ...

"Some satellites were detected emitting in bands where no signals are supposed to be present at all, such as the 703 ...

SpaceX has conducted the analysis with the US National Science Foundation, which is working with the company to reduce Starlink’s impact on astronomy. SpaceX and the NSF didn’t respond to a ...

In 2019, Starlink began launching satellites to provide broadband internet service with low latency and coverage even in ...

Global satellite internet service Starlink could interfere with the world's largest radio telescope being built in Western ...

In a report titled ‘The Growing Impact of Unintended Starlink Broadband Emission on Radio Astronomy in the SKA-Low Frequency Range’, the researchers found that unintended signals from ...

Attempts to reduce the Starlink satellites’ reflectance by painting them a dark black backfired, causing the satellites to absorb too much solar radiation and overheat.

When that vehicle is complete, it can deploy the full-fledged Starlink V2 satellites. If this continues, radio astronomy on Earth's surface could be heavily handicapped.

Attaching astronomy-linked licensing conditions may further complicate attempts to introduce Starlink to the country of Musk's birth, where he has already said he is deterred by government Black ...
