Article Synopsis
- Large constellations of artificial satellites in low Earth orbit significantly interfere with ground-based astronomy due to their brightness, posing challenges for astronomers.
- An international optical observation campaign revealed that the prototype satellite BlueWalker 3 reached an apparent magnitude of 0.4, making it one of the brightest objects in the night sky.
- The anticipated growth of satellite constellations necessitates the development of tracking and avoidance strategies for ground-based telescopes to manage the expected influx of bright satellite objects.
