More problems with astronomical observation

There are problems for the Southern European Observatory, I have even issued a night sky protection manifesto in which Alma and other organizations of astronomers unite in support of the Southern European Observatory against the growing threat of light pollution near the Southern European Observatory. paranal in the Antofagasta region, in Chile in the north of Chile. It seems that a huge Industrial project is going to be built in the AES Andes near Paranal of photovoltaic parks with battery storage, but astronomers are very worried, they criticize that there will be enormous dust emissions during construction that will increase light pollution especially That effect is going to be permanent if all of this is built, the project affects more than 3,000 hectares, it is an enormous area and they also complain about more problems that it could bring in this region that specifically has one of the cleanest skies on the planet, which is a treasure for any astronomical observatory.

The truth is that astronomical observatories are in very bad luck, among the constellations of space satellites, there is not only Starlink, Amazon for example also wanted to build its own, China wants to build its own, there are others underway, there is a constellation of space satellites underway whose satellites are enormous, they are the size of tennis courts, they are gigantic compared to the typical ones in the Starlink constellation for example, which are much smaller, we are going to have thousands of satellites orbiting the Earth and that is a problem. Also for astronomers in the end we are going to have to put observatories on the moon, astronomical observation from Earth is having a very bad time, I think that the issue of satellite constellations will be a temporary thing when they develop airships or stratospheric planes that They may work with solar energy or they may fly for months, those are going to be the ones that are going to replace the satellites, the satellite constellations, but they have not yet been developed.
