The Centre for the Protection of the Dark and Quiet Sky from Satellite Constellation Interference (CPS), an initiative of the International Astronomical Union (IAU), is a coordinating center that works to mitigate the negative impact of satellite constellations on ground-based optical and radio astronomy observations, as well as the public's enjoyment of the night sky. Co-hosted by NSF's NOIRLab and the SKA Observatory (SKAO), the CPS serves as a hub for information and resources, fostering collaboration between astronomers, satellite operators, policymakers, and other stakeholders to address the challenges posed by satellite interference. The CPS aims to be a leading voice in protecting the dark and quiet sky, advocating for solutions at an international level. Key focus areas include space policy, regulations, industry guidelines, astronomical observations, and software solutions.
