Writing to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) telecommunications regulator, the space agency said: "NASA has concerns with the potential for a significant increase in the frequency of conjunction events and possible impacts to NASA’s science and human spaceflight missions."Making their worries about SpaceX clear, they added that SpaceX’s Gen2 expansion "would more than double the number of tracked objects in orbit and increase the number of objects below 600 km over five-fold".
