    Today’s cheap satellites provide benefits to humanity, but I also recognize the impact against observation science. I would support a tax on each satellite launched (perhaps based upon the satellite’s albedo) to fund the design, building, launch and maintenance of the far more useful space based telescopes so that Astronomical science can still continue with these even better tools.
