It's been proven by several teams already, eg: In new research accepted for publication in Astronomy and Astrophysics Letters, we discovered Starlink satellites are also “leaking” radio signals that interfere with radio astronomy. Even in a “radio quiet zone” in outback Western Australia, we found the satellite emissions were far brighter than any natural source in the sky. from: https://theconversation.com/starlink-satellites-are-leaking-... referencing: Detection of intended and unintended emissions from Starlink satellites in the SKA-Low frequency range, at the SKA-Low site, with an…

>Don’t hold your breath on anyone doing anything about it. Maybe you meant, "don't hold your breath on regulators doing anything about it." From the original study[0] that found unintended emissions from Starlink: >The authors are in close contact with SpaceX, and the company has offered to continue to discuss possible ways to mitigate any adverse effects to astronomy in good faith. As part of their design iteration, SpaceX has already introduced changes to its next generation of satellites which could mitigate the impact of the Swarm transponder emissions.
