Elon Musk is sending so many satellites in space it's causing significant damage to research by astronomers, as well as causing a dangerous build-up of space debris as they go offline (picture from the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile, every white streak is a SpaceX satellite)

Another example of space observation ruined by the satellites

Also worth noting is Amazon's plans to launch 3236 additional satellites in orbit, not to mention the planned 12000, possibly even up to 42000, Starlink satellites from SpaceX (currently 597)
