, was launched in 1962 by the United States. It enabled live television broadcasts between the US and Europe.
Tintin A and Tintin B, the first two Starlink satellites, were launched in February 2018 as part of a test mission. These satellites were used to test the design and functionality of the Starlink system, demonstrating its viability and effectiveness. The first operational batch of 60 satellites was launched after this in May 2019.Starlink satellites are designed to offer users worldwide high-speed, low-latency internet connectivity.
Other uses for Starlink satellites include scientific research, Earth observation, remote sensing, and internet connectivity. Additionally, SpaceX plans to offer satellite-based navigation services using the Starlink constellation, which could replace GPS in areas with spotty or weak GPS signals.As of February 2023, around 3,580 Starlink satellites are in orbit around the Earth.
SpaceX has been collaborating with astronomers and other stakeholders to find solutions that lessen the impact of the Starlink satellites on astronomy to ease these worries. Some of these solutions include modifying the satellites' brightness and reflectivity, altering their orbits to reduce interference, and creating software tools to aid astronomers in anticipating and avoiding potential interference.
