    Posted By: Andrew PalfreymanI sent them a comment. I asked if they were insane, except I used other words.


    They've updated the caption. Now it makes more sense.

    This artist's concept is of a Jupiter-mass planet orbiting the nearby star Epsilon Eridani. Located 10.5 light-years away, it was the closest known exoplanet to our solar system when it was discovered in 2007. The planet is in an elliptical orbit that carries it as close to the star as Earth is from the Sun, and as far from the star as Jupiter is from the Sun.

    I think a Jovian planet in a highly elliptical orbit is probably not very good for the rest of the planets trying to orbit in the near thereabouts.

    Starlink might not be a completely tragic disaster after all. Under certain assumptions. For some of the telescopes. Maybe.
