The vast fleet of Starlink satellites which orbits Earth, provides internet coverage on a global scale.
The satellites climb to their optimum operating altitude of 340 miles (550 kilometers).
Starlink satellites travel very quickly. They complete one orbit of Earth every 90 minutes which means it can be possible for sightings every two hours.
The ever-increasing numbers of satellites from SpaceX and other private companies, such as OneWeb, have the potential to create light pollution and space debris stemming from these mega-constellations.
Space advocates have called for greater regulations from government agencies.
Recent technology advances have brought the development of some stargazing apps to the phone screen. If you want to view Starlink satellites, there are several apps avail that allow you to “test before you invest.” And there are also some free versions available.
