Details:
I imaged the SpaceX Starlink Satellites and Big Dipper from my backyard. I was lucky to get 3 SpaceX Starlink Satellites trailing at the end of the Big Dipper handle. So I think this may be a bad thing for DEEP SKY IMAGING. What do you think? This image was from my 70MM to 200MM lens f2.8 and modified Canon 6D stacked on top of my AP 155MM telescope on a AP1600GTO mount. Kind Regards to all.

Its a scary situation! Many years ago it was proposed to create advertising luminous texts in space and the astronomical world protested preventing this horror. Today with the prospect of satellite internet service many will be happy and the protests will be few. Photographer and I have been observing the sky for decades and I notice that interest in the cosmos, especially in the young, is practically absent and the polluted skies besides the costs of the telescopes do not give prospects to the observation of the sky. These useful satellites are the coup de grace !!
