Couldn't be worse than Iridium flsshes.
This is one satellite, Iridium are 88.

It might ruin some astrophotos, but so does Iridium and aircraft.
Heavens-above.com has already added it to their satellite list.

I won't even be able to see it until March.
I can see Iridium flashes every (clear) night.
