- Over the next few decades, Elon Musk is hoping to send 42,000 Starlink satellites to space. With these satellites, SpaceX hopes to bring high-speed satellite internet to every corner of the world. But experts worry it may come at a hefty cost, blocking astronomers' views and potentially space exploration for decades.

@@christianordonez5704 Especially when they'll burn up...
1. It's possible but we don't have the materials for it. Even if we have it on earth, it's still not enough to build one to cover the entire sun.
2. It would take decades or centuries to build it.
3. Cost. It would cost a lot to build one. More than billions of dollars. Probably even more than trillions. World leaders are busy spending millions and billions on weaponry to kill one another just for land, oil, politics.

I hope he doesn't. I'm an amateur astronomer returning to the hobby after about 25 years, and the number of artificial satellites up there now is unbelieveable. Wherever you look in the sky within 5 or 10 minutes one will obstruct your field of view, or more than one going in different directions. Sometimes you'll see two or threee moving along together. It used to be "Wow, there's an artificial satellite....

@@Nixv_01
Meteor showers happen because of asteroids breaking up in the atmosphere. Like all matter asteroids tend to clump together. So I don't see why we would have to worry about fleets of asteroids bombarding earth.
Of course even in such a case we could still change the direction of the asteroids as long as we had more than a year of warning. It'd just take more effort to do so.

Wonderfully demonstrated. Loved your presentation. It was a concise, comprehensible, and a detailed video at the same time.
The scene of WallE blasting through the atmosphere which is literally covered in a layer of space debris...that scene comes to mind
once you do the math, its pratically impossible for that to happen. Also, I dont think that the atmosphere has space debris, unless its space debris deorbiting.
I believe all of that movie. Earth will be left and Mars may be the new home.

You forgetting that in altitudes of 200 to 400 km any debry will experience strong atmospheric drag and will fall down and burn in the atmosphere within a few years. Not decades or centuries.
Do your research right before spreading misinformation.
My point exactly
Sadly that's not how physics works
They won't come crashing towards the surface of the earth unless an external force is applied to it to disturb their inertia moreover centripetal force enables them to keep orbiting the earth even without spending energy . This is the same way how mercury or for that matter any other planet revolves around the sun even at such a low seperation
@@atharvarane6165 you seem to ignore the atmospheric drag at low earth orbit will slow their velocity which lowers their altitude eventually deorbiting them. That is why the International space station which is in low earth orbit requires its altitude to be periodically boosted to maintain its orbit. Starlink sats are in low earth orbit even if they are completely inoperable they would take less than 5 years before they completely deorbit as compared to the sats in geostationary orbit which can remain in orbit for decades.
@@atharvarane6165 the distance between mercury and the sun compared to earth and low earth sats is huge is not comparable. Low earth orbit sats are barely away from the earth so earths gravity has a lot of influence as compared to the sun and planets. If you want to compare the mercury sun relationship use the satellites in geostationary orbit.

This is so freaking important omg! Cause we as humans can't freaking live without wifi! Wow, much more important than fresh air and clean waters! Imagine not having wifi but having fresh water to drink, yuck.
Human life is getting increasingly complex, 30 years ago the internet was a fad for those who could afford a computer, now it's almost an essential service since so many buissneses and services rely on internet communication, this is a very big problem in places outside of a city which I'm sure you live in since you really seem to want clean air.

@Daksh Jhamb there is actually a satellite designed to use infrared to track near earth objects!

This video is meant for people with zero knowledge about space, but its worrying how it doesn't explain everything properly.
I strongly agree 42,000 satellites are actually not that much since it orbits around the whole earth but they are showing it as its every there are trillions of them
You’re all happy folks but for people like me with the eyes on the stars with my telescope, this is a nightmare! Damn I want to see stars not over 40 thousand satellites!

@@hippyface123 agreed with you
Stars are just big satellites
@@robomatt1600 no…
YES AND IF THAT HAPPEND WE WILL BE DAMN, BECAUSE ITS TOO RISKY TO HAVE A LOT OF SATELLITE OUTSIDE THE PLANET
It would be so ironic if Starlink was created to increase the speed of the internet but causes a Kessler Syndrome that destroys all the internet satellites and prevents new ones from being launched therefore ruining internet speed.
It would ruin only satellite internet
They are wiretapped ultra fast surveillance satellites, there is not a single internet connection that's not wiretapped and these are no different. It's high time people in charge of ISP's disclosed this fact.
That's the worry.
This is a total game changer for the planet. Telescopes are not going to be blocked and telescopes can be put out of space so that they too can communicate
They arent even what they tell you they are, they are DIRECT ENERGY WEAPONS, and their purpose is NOT GOOD, already being used
We can't be attacked by aliens if they can't get through our orbit.
They don't need that to nuke our earth 10000 times

I guess there would be no need to wait for aliens to attack...
But what reason would they have to attack us in the first place? Wait, nvm, I just remembered that our government leaders can’t even agree with each other and are spending billions on weapons and military stuff to destroy each other, instead of better technology for mankind

The shocking thing is, that the kessler syndrome already started, but luckily is very slow yet.
The other aspect is, that these satellites only last about five years and have to be replaced permanently.
Therefore, I doubt that starlink etc. will ever be profitable.
I'm surprised Tech Insider omitted an important piece of information about Starlink in regards to the Kessler Syndrome, if starlink does end up breaking into debris, that debris only stays in orbit for a maximum of 3 years before falling into earth and burning in the atmosphere. Whereas satellites in high earth orbit can stay in orbit for hundreds of years. Making the low earth orbit satellites much less risky in regards to the kessler syndrome.
Yeah that was kind of my point they put those satellites into low earth orbit because the further out you go the more space debris there is but being in low orbit they will eventually fall back to Earth
But are you sure this is also the case when they collide? I don't think so. Parts can fly in higher orbits I think.
Debris will fly into higher orbits. Believe it or not, quite alot of energy is transfered when two objects collide at mach 30.
@@justindie7543 That's certainly a possibility, but for debris to reach a perfect orbit, they tend to have to get flung in the direction the original object was already traveling. Anything veering off course too much in a vertical axis tends to hit an imperfect orbit, which certainly doesn't end with debris staying in orbit for 1000+ years. Not to say it's impossible for debris to reach a higher orbit, but those cases are minimal compared to satellites at the traditional orbit range... And it's certainly not to the extent where journalists should completely omit a very important point in their report that might generate a biased and uninformed opinion from the viewers.

Specifically, the internet economy's contribution to the U.S. GDP grew 22 percent per year since 2016, in a national economy that grows between two to three percent per year. In 2020 alone, it contributed $2.45 trillion to the United States' $21.18 trillion GDP. Oct 18, 2021

They must have considered pushing dead satellites into deep space or at least in the direction of some place with the least risk. Could satellites be outfitted with a fail-safe rocket booster that sends the satellite away when it is no longer of use?
Thank you for sharing helpful and informative videos!
Ye. Once their lifespan is up, they have a little fuel in them to slow them down and out of orbit. Then they fall towards the earth's surface where they burn up on re-entry. Any debri should fall into the sea.

I had an idea, maybe add cameras to all the starlink satellites so we can look for near earth objects with 360 view 24/7
Can you see actually bus size objext from 22ooo MileS? Where satelitw take so much power yo be able to be self sufficient and send back all thos data in a manner of seconds? Does solar pannels are so effiecient?
Can we not let one man fill the entire worlds quota of satillites?
Tracking all the satellites around the earth is already problematic and there's only roughly 6k of them up there ATM. I can't possibly imagine what kind of problems 42k+ would produce.
Not a problem when there's tracking data shared amongst all the major players. This also includes stipulations in the launch contract that force spacex to maneuver their sats whenever it's on a collision course with another sat.
Every sat has collision avoidance and deorbiting capabilities.
@@ryanthompson3737lol. Let see how they fair at maneuvering 40k out of their own paths
@levimogford3202 You obviously don't know how far away each level is from each other nor do you understand that they don't have to move 40km away just to not hit something the size of a small bus. Do YOU have to move 40km away to not hit a car? Why would a satellite?
“Oh, what a tangled WEB we weave...when first we PRACTICE to DECEIVE.”
In case anyone forgot: The internet is more than just access at any time to the largest the largest collection of knowledge humankind has ever amassed in the palm of your hand, it's the ability to communicate and unite humans and ideas from across the entire globe and coordinate action and change.
That's what they want you to think, "faster internet" when in reality, it's faster to find you
Hello Conspiracy Theorist!
Tech: Half of the world has no internet excess
Me: They are soo lucky 🍀
Starlink is definitely for us army's need for high broadband requirements for autonomous, video streamed and ai cordinated attacks. To many satellites also makes impossible to shoot down. In war they can be moved towards specific directions and can aldo gather intelligence inspite of high speed communication.
It is cheaper to lay fiber optics around the globe instead of filling space with satellites and fibers are long lasting can cover longer area if assisted via radio. They are undermining and invading soveriegnity of other countries through private players. They are also offering it to public so they can monetize and recover expenses of this defence project.
There is a different reason why these are going into space almost everyday. Its for the new world order , for tracking .
@@gregtowle8830 yes bro
So we’re more focussed on having good Internet instead of protecting our planet? Awesome.
I’ve seen a couple of the satellite trains. The first time I was with someone, and they got to a certain point, and then disappeared. We had no idea what we had just seen!
when have we ever prevented something from hitting earth? at all..
Bruh, ur not preventing something from hitting earth. Ur preventing something from hitting people before it crashes lol
Ever heard of 1998? God bless you Harry Stamper!
@Dylon Jackson nukes don't work in space. or at least not near the magnitude they do on Earth
@@gridg1896 They do lol, that's why there are nuclear defense systems armed and ready for a extinction level asteroid.
@@mydickisincrediblytinyandi7380 Well yes, if you explode an asteroid you would split it apart, however gravity would pull all it's pieces back together and you'd still end up with an asteroid, a lot of asteroids aren't one big block of solid material but a lot of small debris held together by gravity
So it would probably be a good idea to get some late shares in starlink
42,000 sounds like a lot but the orbit is literally bigger than the Earth. Consider that just a large city has over a million cars in circulation. However, some regulations should still be in place.
There’s only 7 continents. I doubt 42,000 is needed
