minus-squareSchmidtGenetics@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-24 months agoI mean maybe this is the push they need to actually spend the cash and get one up in space that is away from natural interferences as well? Sucks for the home radio Astro guy, but they have the solution, have had for a long time.
minus-square9tr6gyp3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 months agoThe best solution is probably to not have starlink satellites up in space tbh
minus-squareSchmidtGenetics@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-24 months agoAny satellite would provide interference, and the earth naturally has its own, so that’s a non-factor, when the best results can only be had in space. Radio astronomy isn’t exactly a home hobbies thing if you didn’t know….

minus-squareSchmidtGenetics@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 months agoYou can do the same in space…
