Fake news!!!
God, look at the light pollution, even there.
Finally, definitive proof that the Earth is flat!
Beautiful, but nausea-inducing.
All you crazy flat landers are insane. We live on a perfectly serviceable sphere.
It is the Sun that is flat!!!
This video proves it. Science.
Great, now I can get car sick while star gazing. (shakes an angry fist at high-tech photographers)
Try to get your time lapse images in now before Elon Musk’s satellite network ruins them.
The same folks that remove the contrails from the skies in Westerns can be responsible for removing these from our films.
In 2001, I found a lookout to specifically observe a sky empty of contrails just because I knew there might not be another opportunity in my lifetime.
The turtle had a little too much to drink.
It’s not a matter of making pretty pictures for consumers. It’s a matter of denying science tests opportunities to gather data. The video clip I posted was from a camera that was attempting to catalog very faint meteors. The satellites interfere with that task. Removing the trails wont bring back the obliterated scientific data.
Ah. I didn’t get that from your original post. Hopefully I’m not the only one enlightened by your clarification.
I grew up in Phoenix and I remember legislation concerning light pollution for the nearby Lowell observatory. Sometimes we remember the scientists.
