If SpaceX's (et al) plans come to fruition, I say just give it a decade or two and start planning to send up a load of telescopes in 'Starships' or whatever they'll have then. I'm a big astronomy fan, but I'd take the [not impossibly large from my perspective] hit in the short term where observations are concerned. In that short-term, I don't think it's an insurmountable problem anyway. - ed as an aside, this was posted on The Register earlier today https://www.theregister.co.uk/2020/02/06/space_comms_revolution_starlink_aws/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2020/02/06/space_comms_revolut...
