Several SpaceX Starlink satellites are leaking low-freaking radio waves, according to scientists from several international institutes. They used the LOFAR telescope.
are reportedly leaking low-frequency radio waves, which scientists say could impact astronomical research.
"Unintended electromagnetic radiation" emanating from onboard electronics in Starlink satellites was detected which could impact astronomical research, according to a recent release from the International Astronomical Union. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is seen in this time exposure from Cocoa Beach, Florida, as it launches the company's third Starlink mission on January 6, 2020, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, in Cape Canaveral, Florida.While communications transmissions had been the primary focus for radio astronomers, the authors concluded that they detected the radiation emanating from electronics onboard the satellites.
However, SpaceX is not violating any rules, as this kind of radiation is not covered by any international regulation for satellites.
