Finally, a legitimate use for Vanta Black.

I just saw them over Poland today, amazing view... my dad was screaming that aliens are coming

You aren't overreacting. It really makes me sad sometimes that my kids never got to see the original state of a lot of areas here on earth that have been overdeveloped during my lifetime. Now the night sky is about to undergo the same type of change. Not all change is good, and not all "progress" is worth the price.
-
I read online that they plan to launch over 40,000 of these in the coming years. They’ve only started. The sky will never be the same.

Land light pollution is a major problem but recently I have realised that sea light pollution is going to be a massive issue before long too,
-
Found you after seeing craziness in the sky this morning (a string of 30 lights crossing the norther sky, west to east, in south central Kansas) and looking for an explanation of what I saw. It was amazing and I was glad we weren't being invaded or having missiles shot over, but it made me so sad to learn our night skies are becoming more cluttered with these things.

You know, at first I thought people were making a big deal out of nothing but you brought up some good points. The space x satellites themselves aren't too much of a problem but with other companies trying to add their's to the mix and no regulation to keep things safe and minimize the visibility, it could add up to a big problem.

A few weeks ago I was in a semi remote part of South Australia. Having no pre warning of the magnitude of the starlink operation the spectacle of it actually terrified me. It was so alarmingly bright and uniform that I wasn't sure exactly what I was looking at. Thoughts of atomic warfare or alien invasion were not so easy to dismiss when confronted with this awe inspiring event. I counted at least 50 and the night sky was completely split it two by the impressive trail. It's something I'll never forget.
-
OK, thats got to be the most creative intro ever! I like your style.
-
I saw hundreds overhead near Tulsa Oklahoma approximately 43 minutes ago.
-
People need to realise though that these satellites are constantly raising their orbits. When they've reached their final positions they will be pretty much invisible.
-
THIS... thanks mate for getting the topic out there. My job would be doomed if this is going to continue without coating...
-
i went out smoking some weed and saw this i thought was tripping balls it was insane
-
hi Alyn , i’m relaxing, and i’m watching this again. it’s one of your best. i’m not a photographer.....but appreciate what all of you have to go through because of LP. and the Science Community as well.
-
been watching for well over a year now but this was the first video I ever watched of yours. instantly got me into astrophotography cuz then I binged watched all your other astrovlogs and eventually bought myself a DSLR. thanks for the inspiration brother. please keep it up!
-
Just wait until there's a big McDonald's advert on the moon...
-
No wonder my horoscope has gone all wonky!
-
I think I just saw them outside Sacramento & thought I was going crazy. It was 4:29AM when a train of around 30 bright lights went by west to east
-
I’ve seen these from India but couldn’t find out what they were and now I know 🤙🏻
