Words can't describe the destruction Starlink is causing the nocturnal environment

 

STARLINK VS. COMET 12P/PONS-BROOKS: Over the past few years, astronomers have expressed a growing sense of alarm about the threat Starlink satellites pose to astronomy. Are they exaggerating? A picture is worth a thousand words:

 

"Words can't describe the destruction Starlink is causing the nocturnal environment, but this single one-minute exposure of Comet 12/Pons-Brooks, taken on May 4th, might," says photographer Ian Griffin of Otago, New Zealand. "I hope everyone is enjoying their satellite broadband."

 

Full disclosure: We at Spaceweather.com do enjoy our Starlink internet, especially during cosmic ray balloon recoveries in remote parts of the Sierra Nevada mountains where cell service is unavailable. It's great. But there is no question that SpaceX is conducting a giant uncontrolled experiment by filling low-Earth orbit with unprecedented numbers of satellites. Bright lines criss-crossing astrophotos aren't the only problem. Harmful changes to Earth's atmosphere and ecosystems are possible, too, along with catastrophic cascade collisions in Earth orbit.

 

According to the IAU, the number of Starlink-like satellites launched by SpaceX and competitors could grow from the current value near 5800 to more than 500,000 in the years ahead. Is that really a good idea?

Hamas has said some of the 33 hostages it would release under the first phase of a prospective hostage deal with Israel would not necessarily be alive.

 

In an announcement detailing the clauses to which it had agreed Monday in the latest proposal for a deal, the terror group said, “During the first phase, Hamas releases 33 Israeli detainees (alive or corpses).”

 

The New York Times reported Tuesday that the terror group had explicitly told mediators that some of the 33 hostages it would release under the first phase of the prospective deal would not be alive. The Times said it was not clear whether the terror group had informed interlocutors how many of the 33 would be alive.

 

A failure to release 33 living hostages would appear to conflict with Israeli demands.

 

Israel had initially demanded that 40 living hostages of the 132 still in Gaza be released in the first phase of the three-phase plan — all of them in the so-called “humanitarian” category: women, children, elderly and sick people.

 

According to multiple reports, it then agreed to lower that number to33after Hamas said it did not hold enough living individuals in the category.
