A swarm of satellites

Posted on by darek

in Iceland astrophotographer has a difficult situation. The aurora itself is beautiful but for locals who would like to watch deep sky objects (DS) it must be a big of stress. Additionaly astrophotographer have a swarm of satellites ovehead. The film shows the swarm of satelites before Mr Musk intensified rocket launches with Starlinks. I am afraid to think what will happen when all starlinks and other planned satellites will be placed in a low orbit.
