'This is really intolerable': Astronomers protest giant orbiting mirror project and SpaceX's million AI satellites

Well the orbiting mirror project is nothing but investor bait. So many reasons why something like that could never work, only a fool would believe that company is anything but a scam.

As for starlink, we've been filtering out satellites from astrophotography for decades. It's pretty much a non-issue to all but the most sensitive equipment, which already had an expiration date due to the increasing number of non-starlink satellites. Newer satellites, including new star link satellites, also use a non-reflective coating to even further reduce the impact.
