Light streaks caused by passing satellites mar images taken by the world's most expensive telescopes. The problem is set to ...

Surrey NanoSystems, Vantablack's creator, announced that it's tackling the reflectivity of satellites that threatens ground-based astronomical research.

Along with our incredible astronomical developments comes brand new responsibilities as well. Now, we not only have to think ...

The paint, called Vantablack 310, could reduce the amount of light reflected by satellites in orbit down to just 2% of what is reflected by uncoated satellites, virtually erasing the pesky streaks ...

Vantablack 310 is one of the darkest paints ever, and it could be the key to eliminating light pollution caused by satellites ...

Researchers from the U.K. plan to launch a CubeSat covered with a newly formulated "hull-darkening" Vantablack paint into ...

The “darkness” in question is an ultra-black paint called Vantablack 310. It’s one of the darkest paints ever created, and it could help keep satellites from reflecting light back down ...

The rising issue of satellite brightness was hindering astronomical research, and scientists came up with an innovative ...

When Vantablack 310 is applied to a surface, it reflects only 2% of incoming light, meaning it absorbs the remaining 98%.
