Astronomers' attempts to study the earliest universe could be threatened by SpaceX Starlink satellites leaking radio ...

The problem is unintentional but seriously affects astronomers as they try to listen for faint signals from the beginning of ...

Spectrum experts and regulators are currently discussing how to address this issue. For now, though, as long as Starlink is here, so are the unintended radio emissions.

Our ability to study faint radio signals from when the first stars began to form is being threatened by SpaceX's Starlink satellites, which seem to be unintentionally leaking radio signals that overpo ...

And the problem will likely get worse: SpaceX is launching about 40 second-generation Starlink ... detectable by radio telescopes too, and they’re working to measure those emissions as well.

In the video below, the left side shows the radio emission observed ... Bassa said. 'This problem is getting worse as SpaceX launches about 40 second-generation Starlink satellites per week.' ...

This issue of radio-wave emission is in addition to the sunlight that Starlink and other satellites reflect, which can be visible to the naked eye and leave light streaks on optical images.

Starlink satellites can interfere with radio telescopes by leaking excess radiation, according to a study from European astronomers. The astronomers warn that second-generation Starlink satellites ...

The researchers don't know what makes the new generation of Starlink satellites — the V2-mini — so radio noisy. The team previously studied unwanted radio emissions from the first generation ...
