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 ...

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 ...

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.

Bassa and his team used six radio telescopes at an observatory near Exloo, Netherlands, to characterize the emissions from Starlink satellites during two hourlong sessions in July. Although the ...

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 ...

Satellite-based radio emissions are an unregulated frontier, and Starlink has tossed about 6,000 satellites into that regulatory void. Thanks as usual, Elon! Another FRB is shedding light on the ...

and our observations show that the second-generation Starlink satellites emit stronger emission and do so over a larger range of radio frequencies, compared to the first-generation satellites ...
