Thursday - Update on LEO Satellite Challenges for Rubin Science

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites continue to be launched at a high rate, exponentially increasing the number in orbit.  In the past few years satellite operators have introduced new technology, such as direct-to-cell, and are building and launching much larger satellites.  The result is more and brighter satellites. The impact on Rubin science will be in lost rare object discovery and an increase in bogus events. To quantify the impact on astronomy, full observing simulations are being carried out.  Now is the time for the science community to become involved in studying the impact on their science programs. This session will bring together Rubin scientists and engineers from SpaceX in a discussion of the mitigation challenges. Technical and policy issues and opportunities will be discussed.
