Since we cannot see the Milky Way galaxy anymore unless we get to a very remote place, I would agree, that we should put some more artificial light in the sky. /sarc

This satellite is not bright enough to affect stargazing, and it will only be visible for a couple of minutes every month or two for a particular location.

The last time I saw the milky way was 1997 in the high desert

They have us starblind and blind to satellite orbits in some ways.

When I wad a child any chucklehead could track Sputnik or Echo II, not so easy today.

Sure we have tools, but the common man is blind.
