pretalxrecording    Audio starts at 0h12m, video runs from 0h15m to 0h43m, and then mostly audio (with transcripts and chat) for the remaining time.

It’s a star, it’s a galaxy, it’s a... satellite streak?! Join colleagues and leaders of the IAU Centre for the Protection of the Dark and Quiet Sky from Satellite Constellation Interference (CPS) SatHub for an engaging session about new software challenges in an era of thousands of commercial low-Earth orbit satellites. Come prepared to share and learn how the community is approaching this issue across the electromagnetic spectrum, what software tools already exist, and what the missing pieces are.
