As part of the Starlink Project, which aims to launching several thousand small satellites into a low earth orbit to create the “space Internet”, May 23, SpaceX launched the first batch of sixty Starlink. And so it came a message that all satellites have successfully completed the primary tasks.
That is, they reached a height of 440 meters, deployed solar panels and slowly began to rise to a given orbit in 550 kilometers, thereby somewhat reassuring the astrologers who beat anxiety about the “clogging” of the night sky.

According to the founder of SpaceX, Elon Musk, satellites do not only rise to a safe height, but also deployed solar panels from the Earth – and therefore the devices will no longer interfere astronomical observations. Or almost will not. Executive the director of the company also said that the launched party Starlink must demonstrate the capabilities of such satellite models, which in the coming years will be launched into a low orbit of the earth to 12 thousand, which will create an independent space Internet, able to cover up to 60 percent of global terrestrial traffic, providing people with superfast and reliable communication.
We note that other private plans also bear companies like American Amazon, British OneWeb, Canadian Telesat. Independent scientists watch everything with concern this, and conspiracy theorists openly declare that the true goal such projects are far from peaceful, but military. And the only as a consolation in all this, forecasting analysts see such a failure in grandiose and ambitious plans of world companies. Maybe in this business, write ufologists, aliens intervene and just hinder implementation of projects that are clearly harmful to the Earth …
