A reminder that some IAU Centre for the Protection of the Dark and Quiet Sky from Satellite Constellation Interference (CPS) folks and I maintain a searchable database of scientific literature and technical reports relating to large satellite constellations and their impacts on : zotero.org/groups/satcons

Thanks to the International Astronomical Union's Office for Astronomy Outreach for having me on this week for Dark and Quiet Skies Month to talk about how large satellite constellations affect our perceptions of "quiet" night skies.

A scholarly critique of the Dark & Quiet Skies process: β€œThe Dark and Quiet Skies initiative should be maintained as a new international effort. ... International Relations scholars still need to analyze the progress and development of international efforts to combat light pollution. In this conclusion, it is no less important to offer solutions to minimize the problem of light pollution.”
