Elon Musk’s Starlink project has sparked a debate among researchers and environmental advocates over its impact on space pollution. Starlink's network of low-Earth orbit satellites is transforming internet access, particularly in remote areas, but concerns are growing about the risks of overcrowding in space. Researchers argue that the increase in satellites raises the likelihood of collisions, creating debris that could jeopardize other space missions.

Additionally, astronomers have noted that the satellites interfere with telescope images, hindering astronomical research. Recently, experts called on the FCC to temporarily pause Starlink launches to assess the environmental impact and establish sustainable practices.

SpaceX has attempted to address these issues with satellite darkening technology, but some argue that these measures may not be enough. Balancing innovation with environmental responsibility will be crucial as satellite constellations expand.
