向加拿大政府和加拿大航天局提交的关于巨型星座的报告
Report on Mega-Constellations to the Government of Canada and the Canadian Space Agency
摘要：
本文件向加拿大政府和加拿大航天局提出了建议，以响应它们关于就加拿大空间探索的未来提供反馈意见的呼吁。该报告侧重于建造巨型卫星星座并将其长期置于地球轨道将如何影响天文学和各国人民对夜空的看法，并关注所有加拿大人。更广泛的讨论突出了与这些巨型星座的建造和维护有关的几个环境问题。这里的八项建议涉及加拿大如何通过国家和国际举措在减轻其中一些负面影响方面发挥作用。在起草这些建议时，我们采取的办法是，需要可持续地发展空间。在这方面，我们采用布伦特兰报告的定义：“可持续发展是在不损害后代满足其自身需要的能力的情况下满足当代人需要的发展。“因此，这里提出的所有建议都是为了尽量减少巨型星座的负面影响，同时也认识到它们的发展将继续下去。
英文摘要：
This document provides recommendations to the Government of Canada and the Canadian Space Agency in response to their call for feedback on the future of Canadian space exploration. The report focuses on how the construction and long-term placement of mega-constellations of satellites into Earth orbit will affect astronomy and the view of the night sky by all peoples, with attention to all Canadians. The broader discussion highlights several environmental concerns associated with the construction and maintenance of these mega-constellations. The eight recommendations here address ways that Canada can play a role in mitigating some of these negative effects through national and international initiatives. In drafting the recommendations, we take the approach that space needs to be developed sustainably. In this regard, we use the Brundtland Report's definition: "Sustainable development is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." Thus, all recommendations here are made with the intent of minimizing the negative consequences of mega-constellations, while also recognizing that their development will continue.
