Remember how just a year or two ago the likes of SpaceX would say their satellites were only ever an issue for high powered visual #astronomy, and even then minimal at worst?

Here's the reality today: not that long after sunset, even looking almost directly into a full moon, two of only a very handful of naked-eye visible objects are some dipshit's satellites zooming past as part of an endless train.
In light polluted #Denmark.
And as @sundogplanets often warns us: we ain't seen nothing yet.

@Pepijn @sundogplanets I thought the same the other day. An object as bright as Venus (for my non-expert eye) moving through the sky. Much brighter than any plane.

@Pepijn @sundogplanets On the bright side, it's legal to take them down, let's build some interceptor rockets

@Pepijn @sundogplanets basically Reflect Orbital without the intent 8-D

@oblomov Oh no, those will be MUCH brighter.
I didn't bother checking exactly but I think these are SpaceX ones.
Bright, but their biggest annoyance is that there's and endless train of the things moving along the static background of the night-sky.
Already there's never a moment where you cannot see them by just casually looking up to the stars.

The ones in the video are still very close together and potentially ever brighter.
