Experts say adding more vehicles into already overcrowded space will undoubtedly create more problems including a higher risk of human fatalities (see 1, 2). Nevertheless, despite these warnings as well as others, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) continues to approve the launching of tens of thousands of broadband satellites from Amazon, SpaceX, and other companies. This is unnecessary because high-speed broadband connections can be achieved via safer and more secure methods than biologically and environmentally harmful wireless-radiation emitting satellites! Other complaints about satellites include they are making it difficult for astronomers to do research (see 1, 2) and launching them is REALLY bad for the environment. Starlink satellites are also swerving every 10 minutes to avoid collision, have fallen from orbit and burned, and their speed is slowing down everywhere! But I digress.
