Abstract
A system includes a plurality of satellites including respective antennas and circuitry. The satellites form a satellite constellation and revolve around a rotating astronomical object from which a source radiates interference toward a target satellite for at least some period of time as the target satellite revolves in a target orbit. The satellites' respective antennas may capture the interference when the satellite constellation is substantially in-line between the source and target satellite, and their circuitry may generate respective measurements based thereon. The circuitry may geolocate or cause transmission of the respective measurements for geolocation of the source based on the respective measurements to thereby identify a location of the source on the astronomical object.
