Starlink doesn’t just interfere with optical astronomy, it also interferes with radioastronomy.

    Astronomers have been moving ever further away from civilization in search of dark sky sites since the invention of the telescope.

    While I sympathize with them, I have to agree that starlink (and future constellations like it) were always inevitable. They can do things which simply weren’t possible, or weren’t realistic, which are of enough value that there would need to be an extraordinarily important reason to prevent it.
