FCC Approves Test of Space Mirror to Light Night Sky Despite Outcry

The F.C.C. has authorized a start-up to test a satellite equipped with a 60-foot mirror designed to reflect sunlight onto Earth after dark. This controversial project aims to power solar farms and assist rescue workers by illuminating a three-mile-wide patch of the night sky, sparking significant debate over the implications of altering our natural darkness.

"A start-up company has permission to try its plan to bounce solar rays onto the dark side of Earth, turning night to day for a three-mile-wide patch."
