Starlink Satellites Risk Blotting Out Radio Telescopes, Astronomers Warn
The excess radio emissions from Starlink satellites threatens to hinder observations through radio telescopes, astronomers in Europe say.
Radio pollution from SpaceX's new Starlink satellites poses threat to astronomy, scientists say
SpaceX's new Starlink satellites are so radio noisy that they could blind radio astronomy observatories to the universe's most intriguing phenomena, scientists say.
Starlink satellites are blinding astronomers' view of space
Starlink and other satellite networks are vital for providing high speed internet to remote communities, but unintended radiation leakages are making life difficult for astronomers who need clear skies.
'Leaking' Starlink Satellites Are Hindering Astronomy More Than Ever, Experts Warn
This problem is only getting worse as SpaceX, the company behind Starlink, continues to launch dozens of new satellites each week. The unintended emissions from these satellites may even exceed international limits for interference, which could have serious implications for future radio astronomy.
Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say
An international team of astronomers reported in a study Wednesday that the second generation model of Starlink satellites is hampering radio astronomy, which is essential for the study of the non-visible universe,
Starlink's new satellites emit 30x more radio interference than before, drowning cosmic signals
The radiation coming from the V2 Starlink satellites already in orbit isn't minuscule - as mentioned above, it's up to 32 times stronger, and the research indicates it's over a wider range of radio frequencies - including more frequencies used by astronomers.
Scientists: New Starlink satellites threaten astronomical research
Starlink's new V2 Mini satellites interfere with radio telescopes on Earth with strong radio waves. Astronomers would be "blinded" by electromagnetic radiation.
Beyond light pollution: Starlink satellites are also interfering with radio signals
Experts at the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON) claim that second-generation, or "V2," Mini Starlink satellites emit interference that is a staggering 32 times stronger
Study Warns Starlink Broadband Satellites Causing Problems for Radio Astronomy
A new study conducted by the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON) has warned that interference from the second (v2-Mini) generation of Starlink's
SpaceX's Starlink Satellites Are Leaking More Radio Waves Than Ever
Satellite swarms orbiting the Earth are leaking more radiation into protected wavelength bands than ever. In fact, the second generation of Starlink satellites – known as the v2mini and v2mini Direct-to-Cell versions – are leaking up to 32 times more radiation than their predecessor.
Astronomers warn of Starlink satellites’ impact on space research
Astronomers are concerned about the interference from Starlink satellites, which emit stronger radio waves, hindering astronomical research.
