Observations with the LOFAR (Low Frequency Array) radio telescope last year showed that first generation Starlink satellites emit unintended radio waves that can hinder astronomical observations.

A recent study found that SpaceX’s Starlink V2-mini satellites emit more radio waves, potentially interfering with radio astronomy. Skip to content Introducing the all-new Astronomy.com Forum!

Researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON) worked to quantify the effect of SpaceX's 6,400+ Starlink satellites using the LOFAR radio telescope.
