Mitigating Satellite RF Pollution and Scope Photobombs

Originally Published 10 days ago — by theregister.com

Satellite constellations like Starlink are causing radio interference and optical photobombing issues for astronomers due to poorly designed antennas and spectrum leaks. While regulations are evolving to mitigate these problems, hardware updates and better standards are needed to ensure coexistence between scientific and commercial satellite uses, with ongoing efforts to improve antenna design and spectrum management.
