I love the night sky, so much that I want to go there and SpaceX is closer to making that possible than anyone. Starlink is an essential part of that.
From what I've seen, the satellites are barely visible to the naked eye, and that mainly near the horizon. They're not going to turn the sky into a flickering mass of satellites.
- dorchadas 5y agoAs I said elsewhere, that might be true for Starlink. But the first corporation that discovers it's cheaper to pay the fine than making it so they're not visible to the naked eye will do it without a moment's hesitation, and nothing will happen to them and then the night sky will be ruined for everyone. And more will follow suit. It's a conversation that needs to be had now, before that happens.
