Laws to protect astronomy? Really? Talk about the strong needs of the few outweighing the weak-moderate needs of the many. If I was an astronomer I would be pissed, but let’s have some perspective here: vastly more people are going to be helped by this than hurt. Moreover, this sky pollution has already happened with light and eventually will become a problem with satellites. There’s just no stopping it and we should recognize that things change, sometimes for better or for worse. But mostly, better for some and worse for others.
