Musk denied that Starlink satellites are squeezing space: low earth orbit can hold tens of billions of satellites
News on December 30, Beijing time, the US commercial space exploration company SpaceX is building a huge Starlink satellite network in space to provide broadband services to the ground. This has triggered criticism that the company “squeezes too much space.” A few days ago, SpaceX founder Musk refuted this view, saying that there is enough space in the orbit around the earth to accommodate “tens of billions” of satellites. Musk said: “Space is extremely large, and the satellite itself is very small. The current situation is not that we are blocking other space devices. We are not blocking other people from doing anything, nor are we going to do so.”
Musk’s statement is actually a response to the recent criticism of Josef Aschbacher, the head of the European Space Agency. Ashbach said that Musk himself is setting the rules for a new commercial space economy. Ashbach said in an interview earlier this month that Musk hastily deployed thousands of communication satellites into space, which will affect the radio frequency resources and orbital space that other space agencies can use.
