From the paper:
> Therefore, perturbation of the magnetosphere from conductive satellites and their plasma dust layer should be expected and should be a field of intensive research. Human activity is not only impacting the atmosphere, it is clearly impacting the ionosphere.
It's just a call for more research. Definitely something that we should do as space becomes more and more important to everyday life but its far from hockey stick graph doomerism
