While I appreciate what spacex is doing to advance spaceflight and international communication, I worry we are losing something essential. That is, a good clear night for research of various cosmic phenomena.
I was at green bank for some work not too long ago and we had to Stow the dish for a while due to starlinks downlinks having variant harmonics that interfered at the hydrogen line.

I was rather disappointed in that. Took us offline during a GRB event we wanted to do a study on.

That being said, I don't disapprove of the intent. Rather I agree with those who applaud their continuing effort to reduce the negative impacts Starlink has on astronomy.
