—-URGENT SPACE SATELLITE ISSUE -—NEW STUDY

Potential Perturbation of the Ionosphere by Megaconstellations and Corresponding Artificial Re-entry Plasma Dust

We wanted you to see and review the “headline” article in the most recent
newsletter/posting on SpaceWeather.com. Perhaps you have already viewed this one.

This new study…. by PhD candidate in plasma physics at University of Iceland, Sierra Solter,
gives focus to the potential for disintegrating satellites to gravely impact and disrupt the magnetic field surrounding our planet. The author’s paper,discloses and quantifies potential consequences, which have not been considered by related scientific communities, across many disciplines, internationally.

Please read this well-written study. See this link:

also, see the Feb. 1, 2024 SpaceWeather.com article with imbedded links at

Please forward this article (including additional links) to those you may know, especially within the international academic research community.
(The author, S. Solter, urges that these impacts should be studied on a multidisciplinary basis.)

Let us know your opinion and/or the informed opinions of others. For example:

Are there any specific errors within this study? Are any corrections needed?
Given the serious, even dire, implications of this study, it is so important to get
qualified, expert feedback and greatly expanded, well-funded research.

What are your views and their views?
Are other institutions, universities, etc. now pursuing
intensive research into these dangers to our magnetosphere? If not, why not?
