Highly pointed remarks

Abstract: Daedalus suggests a solution to the radio noise from telecommunication satellite systems, and the problem they create for radioastronomers. For example, the 66 satellites of the Iridium system now entering service could collectively form a ‘very long baseline interferometer’ which could be made wonderfully directional — transmitting to and receiving from just few square metres around a specific ground station. Radiotelescopes elsewhere would detect nothing.
