Study Published Dec 4th Adds Question About Starlink’s December 10th Test and RF Radiation’s Biological Impact

December 10th marks a significant date as SpaceX gears up to test its Starlink satellite technology, involving populated areas in 13 states. This event, while a technological leap forward, eerily echoes the groundbreaking studies conducted on Wistar rats, specifically exploring the combined neurotoxic, cytotoxic, and genotoxic effects of 5GHz MIMO waves and computed tomography (CT) irradiation.

The Study in Focus:
A recent study published on Dec, 4th 2023, Single and combined neurotoxic, cytotoxic, and genotoxic effects of 5GHz MIMO waves and computed tomography irradiation in male Wistar rats by Adejoke Olukayode Obajuluwa et al., published in the Egyptian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, delves deep into the impacts of 5GHz radio and CT irradiation on Wistar rats. The researchers meticulously investigated the effects on blood parameters, neurobehavioral profiles, DNA, and p53 gene expression, revealing significant disruptions in normal cellular functions and neurotransmission.

Drawing Parallels with Starlink’s Test:
SpaceX’s upcoming Starlink test mirrors these studies’ structures, albeit on an unprecedented human scale. The selective exposure of certain states to potentially harmful RF radiation effectively creates a real-world experiment, with unconsenting human populations serving as subjects. The ethical implications of such a comparison are profound and disturbing.

Unconsented Human Experimentation:
The Nuremberg Code, a cornerstone in ethical medical practice, emphasizes voluntary consent for any experimentation involving human subjects. The Starlink test, which subjects unaware populations to potential RF radiation hazards, starkly violates this principle, transforming these individuals into involuntary participants in a large-scale public health study.

Findings from the Rat Studies:
The studies conducted on rats highlighted alarming outcomes: memory and cognition impairments, changes in blood parameters, and significant genetic alterations, including the loss of p53 gene bands. These findings are crucial as they underscore the potential health risks humans might face due to chronic exposure to RF radiation from projects like Starlink.

Conclusion:
As we stand on the cusp of SpaceX’s ambitious test, it is imperative to reflect on these studies and their implications. The potential risks of widespread RF radiation exposure cannot be overstated, and the ethical considerations in conducting such experiments without public consent must be addressed. The Starlink test not only pushes the boundaries of technological advancement but also challenges the ethical framework governing human exposure to new technologies.

Call to Action:
It’s crucial for regulatory bodies, researchers, and the public to scrutinize the Starlink test and demand transparency and accountability. We must ensure that our pursuit of technological progress does not come at the expense of public health and ethical integrity.
