Research Paper Warns That There’s a Massive Experiment at Work to Geoengineer the Earth’s Climate

A new study warns that pollution from satellite burnup and rocket launches is already reducing sunlight at Earth’s surface.

Researchers say rocket soot and metals from de-orbiting satellites are major drivers of the growing atmospheric impact.

The effect could expand enough by 2029 to resemble some aspects of solar geoengineering, with potential climate and ozone consequences.

Mega-constellation growth, including systems like Starlink, is expected to intensify the problem unless regulation tightens.
