The excess radio emissions from Starlink satellites threatens to hinder observations through radio telescopes, astronomers in Europe say.

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.

An international team of astronomers reported in a study Wednesday that the second generation model of Starlink satellites is hampering radio astronomy, which is essential for the study of the non-visible universe,

A new study conducted by the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON) has warned that interference from the second (v2-Mini) generation of Starlink's

Deep space objects (DSOs) such as galaxies and distant stars emit light in the electromagnetic spectrum, which travels to Earth in waves and are picked up by radio telescopes. However, satellite radiation is affecting our ability to detect these waves.

The thousands of satellites in orbit are blinding radio telescopes and could be hampering astronomical research.

V2 sats beam 10M times brighter noise, hampering telescopes The second generation of Starlink satellites being lobbed into orbit by SpaceX might not reflect as much sunlight as the old ones, yet astronomers say they're leaking up to 32 times the unintended radio waves instead.

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.
