Starlink

Starlink is a satellite internet constellation operated by Starlink Services, LLC, an international telecommunications provider that is a wholly owned subsidiary of American aerospace company SpaceX, providing coverage to around 150 countries and territories. It also aims to provide global mobile broadband. Starlink has been instrumental to SpaceX's growth. SpaceX began launching Starlink satellites in 2019. As of May 2025, the constellation consists of over 7,600 mass-produced satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) that communicate with designated ground transceivers. Starlink comprises 65% of all active satellites. Nearly 12,000 satellites are planned, with a possible later extension to 34,400. SpaceX announced reaching over 1 million subscribers in December 2022, 4 million subscribers in September 2024 and 8 million subscribers in November 2025. The SpaceX satellite development facility in Redmond, Washington, houses Starlink research, development, manufacturing, and orbit control facilities. In May 2018, SpaceX estimated the cost of designing, building and deploying the constellation would be at least US$10 billion. Revenues from Starlink in 2022 were reportedly $1.4 billion with a net loss. In May 2024 that year's revenue was expected to reach $6.6 billion but by December the prediction was raised to $7.7 billion. Revenue was then expected to reach $11.8 billion in 2025. Financial statements filed with the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce revealed Starlink 2024 revenue only reached $2.7 billion, about two-thirds short of the latest prediction, for a profit of $72 million. Starlink has been extensively used in the Russo-Ukrainian War, a role for which it has been contracted by the United States Department of Defense. Starshield, a military version of Starlink, is designed for government use. Starlink's technology is reportedly a front-runner for the U.S. Golden Dome missile defense system that involves placing weapons into orbit. Astronomers raised concerns about the effect the constellation would have on ground-based astronomy, and how the satellites contribute to an already congested orbital environment. SpaceX has attempted to mitigate astronometric interference concerns with measures to reduce the satellites' brightness during operation. The satellites are equipped with Hall-effect thrusters allowing them to raise their orbit, station-keep, and de-orbit at the end of their lives. They are also designed to autonomously and smoothly avoid collisions based on uplinked tracking data.

  531. "SpaceX just launched 60 new satellites, which have been spotted as a chain of bright lights across the sky. As more are launched and orbits change, this could be a very big problem for ground-based astronomy. Musk's offhand "they can't be seen at night" is not true or reassuring. https://t.co/OwbsPJOw9H"

  532. "@AstroKatie Even if they were only visible at dusk and dawn as claimed, they would still affect our data because we take calibrations then. Dusk/dawn flats are hard enough to take as is. Having a subset of 12,000 bright things running through those exposures would be infuriating"

  533. "I know people are excited about those images of the train of SpaceX Starlink satellites, but it gives me pause. They're bright, and there are going to be a lot of them. If SpaceX launches all 12,000, they will outnumber stars visible to the naked eye"
