They are not visible, they do not interfere with our view of the sky
in dark sites, they have minimal impact on astronomy, they do not have environmental impact.

Everything in the article is absolutely correct.
You see, oh feeble-minded one, objects in Earth orbit reflect light from all sources, not just the Sun.

Astronomers disagree with you.No. A few astronomers are impacted. But most are not. Our skies are
visually the same as they have always been, excepting the growth of ground-based light pollution. Satellites don't cause problems with the
vast majority of astronomy.

"We" is everyone else on the planet, not you. You are the turd.
Chris, you seem like the kind of guy who just wants to burn fossil fuels, eat steaks, and shit in the creek where other people drink.
and that is fine, except nobody likes you.
I catch satellite in my images all the time. is it a problem for me. not really. ruins a few subs. I'm not doing anything important. It's just a hobby.
Weather or not astronomy in general is being impacted. Probably to some degree.
If i was buying time on an expensive telescope array and a few things get messed up, maybe i miss the big dinosaur extinction meteor cause of Elon Musk's space crap.
Is all the junk in the sky a problem for future satellite, most definitively yes.

You have ignored the two most salient points, which is that these
satellites are not visible to the eye, and that satellite tracks are
rarely problematic on images.
Chris, you seem like the kind of guy who just wants to burn fossil fuels, eat steaks, and shit in the creek where other people drink.
and that is fine, except nobody likes you.
I catch satellite in my images all the time. is it a problem for me. not really. ruins a few subs. I'm not doing anything important. It's just a hobby.
Weather or not astronomy in general is being impacted. Probably to some degree.
If i was buying time on an expensive telescope array and a few things get messed up, maybe i miss the big dinosaur extinction meteor cause of Elon Musk's space crap.
Is all the junk in the sky a problem for future satellite, most definitively yes.

Present YOUR evidence to the contrary.
And remember, only a few hundred out of thousands of IAU members voted to demote Pluto to a "dwarf planet" (whatever the heck that is.)
Not exactly kosher to answer a question with a question... people might think that you don't actually have an answer... after all, it is *you* who made the claim, so it is *you* who is called upon to support it. I have made no claim whatsoever!
And remember, only a few hundred out of thousands of IAU members voted to demote Pluto to a "dwarf planet" (whatever the heck that is.)Yes, I agree that was not the right thing to do. If I were king I would have gone ahead and changed the definitions as they did, but I would have grandfathered in Pluto as a planet so everybody wins. Just my opinion, of course.

Re-read petersen's post about the "99%" of astronomers, then re-read MY response to it. Stop making an ass of yourself.
I am not referencing Peterson's statements at all (and you cannot even spell the man's name correctly), I am simply asking you for evidence to support your claim, which was "The astronomers who are not complaining have not reached a "consensus" becausethey have not even discussed the situation."
This seems to be pulled directly from your cranial calculator's rectal storage facility, and you have already convinced me that you do not have any evidence whatsoever that would support such a claim, otherwise you would have proudly presented it. Whycan't you just admit that you misspoke? Anyone with 2 functioning neurons can read for themselves that this is the case. You are beating a very dead horse.
I myself know dozens of amateur astronomers who are mostly imagers and none of them appear have any problems with satellites ruining their images. I will assume that either they discard any images that show trails and stack up the good ones incompiling their images or they have some other way of digitally manipulating their data to remove them, but I am completely ignorant about astrophotography and am only speculating about this. In any case, these guys create some truely spectacular images
Without evidence you should just STFU.

You obviously believe "survey work" to be unimportant.

The detection of objects in space that can pose a serious threat to Earth is definitely far more important than providing access to TikTok (for example.)Most of the objects that pose a threat can only be detected by

"Most" isn't good enough. It only takes one such object to create a catastrophe. These satellites will interfere with the search.
So we are back to my earlier comment; 'The astronomers who are not complaining have not reached a "consensus" because they have not even discussed the situation.'
