Large LEO satellite constellations (or so-called Mega-constellations) will significantly change the view of the sky in some radio frequency bands. For VGOS telescopes it is important to understand the potential impact these constellations will have in their operations, what is the risk of its receivers going into non-linear behaviour and how much additional power would a telescope receive if observing in the same frequencies where satellites are transmitting. This work describes three of these new constellations (as they would look fully deployed) and summarizes the results of a particular study considering two VGOS telescopes (Onsala and Wettzell).
