I read an essay recently on the costs of losing our sight of the stars. Starlink, an Elon Musk company, announced it will launch several thousand satellites into the atmosphere. This will give people in the most remote parts of the world access to the internet. One of the side effects, however, is that the sheer number of satellites that are being tossed into the night sky will blot out our sight of the Milky Way and beyond.
