In recent years, satellites have become smaller, cheaper, and easier to make with commercial off-the-shelf parts. Some even weigh as little as one gram . This means more people can afford to send them into orbit. Now, satellite operators have started launching mega-constellations – groups of hundreds or even thousands of small satellites working together – into orbit around Earth.

Perhaps We Should Regulate Deranged Billionaires Like Elon Musk
Last month, Elon Musk officially became the world's richest man. Though it sounds like the plot of a decidedly down-market Bond flick, he's now also the world's most powerful space baron.
Given Musk's well-established penchant for absurd and often cringeworthy self-promotion, this claim can probably be taken with a grain of salt. Just a few short years ago, after all, the billionaire was confidently telling a technology conference that he would begin sending rockets to Mars in 2018 and would be able to start colonization efforts within a decade.

Earlier this week, 16-year-old Kartik Pinglé and 18-year-old Jasmine Wright peer-reviewed a paper and detailed their observation of four additional exoplanets situated about 200 light-years away from Earth.
