    A NEW PROBLEM WITH SATELLITE MEGACONSTELLATIONS? Earth's magnetic field helps us navigate and protects us from solar storms. It's crucial. However, a new study suggests that satellite megaconstellations could be tampering with our planet's magnetism by depositing a shell of conductive material in the upper atmosphere.

    Correct. The article indicates that the satellite megaconstellations could "help" the Sun weaken the magnetic field much more.
