Starlink Could Be The End Of Astronomy!
225Can you believe that Starlink has just launched its 5000th satellite in Earth’s low orbit? That surely is a ton! But little do you know, that is just the beginning of Elon Musk’s ambition to deploy over 42 thousand Starlink satellites. This means high-speed internet for everybody!
As beautiful as this dream seems for the common citizen who just wants to watch high-quality videos in the comfort of his home, this is an ultimate nightmare for the scientific community! Their observations are being severely disturbed by the near earth objects, creating very long light streams when long exposure pictures are taken! Will we reach a time where stars will stop being accessible to us on Earth and the only way to see them is through pictures from space-based telescopes? Are we ready to say goodbye to romantic stargazing nights in the desert or up in the mountains?
Quick Recap
Let’s remember together what these little trouble-making satellites are made of.
In order to make them the most effective and least costly, the satellites operate on solar panels that get charged during the day, to be able to power the satellite throughout the night.
Stars? Or Elon Musk?
Nowadays, it seems like everywhere you look, you see Elon Musk. You look on your right, you see a Tesla pass by, you look on your left, you see his face next to Mark Zuckerberg’s claiming to meet up for a physical fight. Now that he has successfully conquered our Earth, he’s planning to conquer what surrounds it too!
The Train
Despite all the negative consequences that Starlink is imposing on scientific research and our Earth’s habitability, it is still somehow a pretty sight for us to watch the famous “Train of Lights” pass us by in the night sky.
