Some italian amateur astronomers have thought to protest against the
society Energia Ltd. in order to prevent the launch.
If you want to help us, send a copy of the following message to the
address energia@energialtd.com
and tell to your friends to do the same thing.
Thanks to everybody!
Stop Znamya Mission !
Night is a right of everybody and dark and starry Sky is a cultural
gift of all the people.
If you light the Sky at night you will irreparably damage astronomic
research, harm all
animals and plants, deprive human beings of the contemplation of
the Universe and of darkness to sleep.
Moreover, if you want to powerfully light a precise location on
Earth for a very long time, you should use a huge number of low rounding
satellites; so this is why we believe that in the next future Znamya will
just be for commercial purposes: but the Sky should not be used for trade.
This in why Znamya shall never fly !
