The IAU CPS SatHub: Updates on observation campaigns, services and software to mitigate satellite constellation interference
Abstract
SatHub is one of the four hubs of the IAU Centre for the protection of the Dark and Quiet Sky from Satellite Constellation Interference (IAU CPS). SatHub focuses on observation campaigns, brightness data analysis and software curation to improve our understanding of the impact of satellite constellations on astronomy and observers worldwide. That includes online services hosted in concert with our contributing members that simplify satellite constellation mitigation in astronomical observation planning. In this contribution we will give a summary of services offered by SatHub and its members and discuss the current status of satellite constellation observation campaigns for several operators and across the electromagnetic spectrum. Online services such as SatChecker and the Satellite Constellation Observation REpository (SCORE) will be presented.
