Comment on Huge new satellite outshines nearly every star in the sky
venusenvy47@reddthat.com 1 year agoThey probably threaten some space telescopes, too. The Starlink satellites are a little higher than Hubble. I would imagine they might take up a decent amount of field of view to Hubble, by being closer.

They are at almost the same altitude, 540 km vs 550 km. There is probably almost never a starlink sat in view for the Hubble, they would need to be right on to of each other, the satellite would pass by at a very high speed and you wouldn’t see another for days.
