  1. Moving #AI #DataCenters to #space is high-altitude #greenwashing. We just filed comments urging the #FCC to reject Cowboy Space’s 20,000-satellite "Stampede" constellation. From stratospheric metallic pollution to escalating collision risks and threats to astronomy, the hazards of orbital computing are severe. The FCC must require a full Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

  13. This just-accepted proceedings paper from last year's Oxford XIII/IAU Symposium 399 conference digs into a topic I have been thinking about for years: who really has the right to do exactly what in outer space, and what is the basis for any such 'right'?

    What I found in researching it is that what one culture sees as benign might be deeply offensive to another, and that humans continue to ignore the lessons of #history (often flagrantly and deliberately).

  23. The story of humanity in space is still being written, but the ink is drying fast.

    CSE co-founders John Barentine and Aparna Venkatesan have published a new call to action in Frontiers in Space Technologies. They argue that we must look beyond outdated treaties to secure a just and sustainable future.

    We have the agency to decide what happens next. Let’s build a future by design, not by default.

  28. Is the Outer Space Treaty becoming a "League of Nations" for the cosmos?

    In a new Opinion piece for Frontiers, we argue that existing space governance isn't fit for the era of private satellite megaconstellations. To protect our shared heritage, we need a shift toward "Space Environmentalism."

    We still have the chance to build a future by design rather than by default—if we act before these norms are set in stone.

  33. Blue Origin is seeking U.S. Federal Communications Commission approval to operate a 51,600-satellite "orbital data center" network. Today, the Center for Space Environmentalism officially filed our opposition to its application.

    We're demanding a rigorous environmental review to assess collision risks and the severe threat to our shared night sky before any approval is granted. Read our comment in full: spaceenvironmentalism.org/acti
