    If they’re still using the same frequency bands as before, would this really have a much greater impact? I would think that, for radio astronomy, even a small amount of radio interference could make those bands unusable. A one-watt signal from 100 miles away would have the same effect as a six-watt signal, easily overwhelming the faint signals we’re detecting from light years away.
