Well, there's an analysis of 76 million images. This is all prototypes stationed for the S-squared kilometer array radio telescope. The Starlink satellite mission affects up to 30 percent of images. In some data sets, the interference will likely affect research outcomes that are actually very much dependent on that data. And the survey showed more than 112,000 radio emissions from 1,806 Starlink satellites and found that much of the observed interference, it's unintentional. It's not like they're building these satellites and what's being emitted from them for communication purposes. They're actually in a culprit. No, this is unintentional. Some of the satellites are detected in a band where no signals are supposed to be at all. Like the 703 satellites that were identified at 150.8 megahertz, which is meant to be protected for radio astronomy. This is a study led by Dylan Craig, the Ph.D. candidate from Kirkland University.
