Deadline for comments on a million SpaceX "AI data centers" and a company that wants to deliver "sunlight as a service."
-
Submitted!
I am an astronomer who has asked nicely for years for SpaceX to be safer in orbit, think about ways to use fewer satellites, think about the consequences of burning up so many satellites, and think about ways to make their satellites darker. This filing proposing a million satellites is a clear "fuck you" from SpaceX to the entire astronomy community, as well as the entire planet.
So, fuck you, too, SpaceX!
Several organizations I'm part of have now submitted their comments on the incredibly fucking stupid SpaceX-million-AI-data-center filing, so now it's time to turn all my anger on the even fucking STUPIDER Reflect Orbital filing for sunlight-as-a-service.
Writing these other comments and convincing as many people as possible to also write comments is going to require an awful lot of swearing and complaining from me over the next 3 days, fediverse. I hope you're all ready for it.

@sundogplanets While I understand the problem, I’m glad to see that the hard days have passed at least to a degree where you’re able to swear at satellites again.

If you can throw some light on this lunacy, I won't complain!

Ok well another Starlink just reentered over Canada. So yeah. Definitely writing this now.
Time to live-toot an FCC submission while completely exhausted, but also watching a pleasant anime with friends and family!
@sundogplanets oooh what anime

If we are going to have mirrors in space, they should be directing heat away from the planet, not at it. -

Mirrors pointing at us reflecting the sun to targeted spots is going to be like a Space Laser. Like holding a magnifying glass to burn something using the sun. -

Deadline for comments on a million SpaceX "AI data centers" and a company that wants to deliver "sunlight as a service." If you have time and energy, please write a comment! Instructions below.
(I heard a rumour that Reflect Orbital is on-track to have the most comments on an FCC filing ever. Seems like a good goal to beat the record writing responses to this incredibly fucking stupid idea)
Also instructions here: https://darksky.org/news/two-satellite-proposals-threaten-the-night-sky-the-window-to-act-is-now/
Just sent mine in about SpaceX mega constellation. Will do Reflect Orbital tomorrow. Having zero expertise in this matter, it sometimes feels a little silly submitting formal comments, but I bet there's also value in simply flooding them with opposition.
