Yeah, I kinda get why astronomers are not particularly happy with satellite constellations.

I'm rebuilding my RSS feed collection, and having pretty astronomy pictures is a fine addition. Thanks!

I fear this is only the start of it. A minimum of 3-4 constellations more will probably be launched in the near future (Russia, China, EU).
Their obvious dual-use nature makes them tempting, and a military target if a large conflict will take place in the near future. I hope their lower orbit will help any space junk burn up fast.
