The visible and significant presence of satellites in the night sky has an impact on astronomy and astrophotography activities for both amateurs and professionals, by perturbing observations sessions with undesired streaks in captured images, and the number of spacecrafts orbiting the Earth is expected to increase steadily in the coming years. In this article, we test an existing method and we propose a dedicated approach based on eXplainable Artificial Intelligence to detect streaks in astronomical data captured between March 2022 and February 2023 with a smart telescope in the Greater Luxembourg Region. To speed up the calculation, we also propose a detection approach based on Generative Adversarial Networks.
