SpaceX Satellites Falling From the Sky
SpaceX's Starlink satellites are falling back to Earth every single day, with 1-2 satellites de-orbiting daily.
As Starlink scales up operations, the number of satellites falling daily could increase to 5, adding to the swarm of space junk in low-Earth orbit.
- Currently, 1-2 Starlink satellites out of 8,000 are falling back to Earth daily.
- With 30,000 satellites from Starlink and other companies, there could be up to 5 daily de-orbits.
- Chinese systems are predicted to add another 20,000 satellites to the total count.
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s... probably a hunk of trash metal from yet another de-orbited Starlink satellite burning up in the atmosphere.
Author's summary: SpaceX satellites are falling daily, increasing space junk.
