Starlink and other satellite networks are vital for providing high speed internet to remote communities, but unintended radiation leakages are making life difficult for astronomers who need clear skies.

The radiation coming from the V2 Starlink satellites already in orbit isn't minuscule - as mentioned above, it's up to 32 times stronger, and the research indicates it's over a wider range of radio frequencies - including more frequencies used by astronomers.

SpaceX's new Starlink satellites are so radio noisy that they could blind radio astronomy observatories to the universe's most intriguing phenomena, scientists say.
