Poor astronomers can't even enjoy the stars anymore. What a fucked up world.
The newer Starlink satellites have visors to reduce their brightness.
Reduced launch costs will also allow for the creation of bigger, better, and cheaper space telescopes.
They're still bright.
Reduced launch cost just means more junk is going to go up. Bigger, better, cheaper telescopes, but also bigger, brighter, cheaper satellites.
I can't use a space telescope from my back porch
No, but when there are lots of them you might be able to rent one to use from your desktop computer. I know I’d throw down occasionally to get time on a space telescope.
