It's Tuesday and we've got lots of news to share, starting with astronomers analyzing over 76 million radio telescope images to find that Starlink satellites are interfering with the readings, causing signals "where no signals are supposed to be present." This issue only adds to the growing concern astronomers have about these satellites in low-Earth orbit. 

Other news for today includes a fiery response from the authors of a controversial 2010 arsenic-based life study which was recently retracted, the director of upcoming "Predator: Badlands" teasing the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger at Comic Con and five renovated galleries at the Smithsonian National Air and Space museum reopening to the public. 

We're also launching a brand-new weekly feature every Tuesday: Trivia Tuesday, your chance to test your space smarts with our quiz of the week. Every Tuesday, we'll challenge you with a fresh set of questions covering everything from rocket science to celebrities in space to astronomy vs. astrology. 

This week's theme: Are you a SpaceX expert? Scroll down to take the quiz!

Thanks for exploring with us.

Keep looking up,
