Could #China and #Russia really destroy #Starlink?
The Insider, Der Spiegel and Le Monde found evidence of a partnership between China and Russia in #space #weapons far deeper than countries acknowledged. One particular focus been developing strategies to counter #SpaceX’s Starlink.
“documents show a partnership that has moved well beyond shared rhetoric into a structured, multi-disciplinary program to build weapons neither country could develop alone,” publications wrote

"SpaceX and other companies want to put millions of satellites into space. Could orbit run out of room?""“We are ripe for a major event to occur. And all of that debris will rain down through all the other operational satellites.” —Darren McKnight LeoLabs"

Dennis's high praise convinced me to try #Starlink. It's pretty incredible to have reliable communication that is unbound to whatever is going on "on earth." Just setup one of those mini mesh nodes tonight... https://mastodon.faithtree.social/@ofb/117126064368585252

Not so fast says Iridium in letter to FCC regarding Starlink's plans to upgrade its earth based gateways.
In April, SpaceX filed with the FCC to build a next-gen gateway station in Texas, requesting permission to use 19.4 to 19.6 GHz and 29.1 to 29.3 GHz RF bands.
Iridium formally petitioned the FCC to block SpaceX from using the 19.4 to 19.6, and 29.1 to 29.3 GHz bands, warning of interference problems, as Iridium uses the same radio spectrum as “feeder links” to supply data for the company’s mobile satellite services, which includes navigation, messaging and data. https://www.pcmag.com/news/starlinks-new-gigabit-gateways-face-interference-complaint-from-iridium #Starlink #SpaceX #Iridium #SatelliteCommunications #Communications #RF #RadioFrequencies #FCC #Satellites #RadioSpectrum

Russian media claim Ukraine set two 'absolute records' in latest attack
Russian propagandists acknowledged the enormous scale of the new attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces
Russian propagandists cite new data from the Russian Ministry of Defense. The Ministry claims that its air defense forces allegedly shot down 1,671 Ukrainian drones, 10 guided bombs, and two HIMARS rockets.

NEW post on TechAptitude - deep dive into SpaceX Starlink!
With its ~11,000 satellites in Low Earth Orbit, the largest satellite constellation ever built, Starlink has ~12 million active customers in 160 countries, and it secured revenue of $18.7B USD in 2025.
Starlink is clearly the Crown Jewel in the SpaceX Universe of Companies (pun intended)!
SpaceX Starlink shows us what can be accomplished when you control all aspects of a supply chain. In the case of Starlink, by designing, building, and operating satellites combined with the ability to launch the satellites in masse has given it a MAJOR advantage and head start over potential competitors.

#Starlink now has 10,365 active #satellites, nearly 66% 📊 of the world’s active satellites, with nearly 3,320 new satellites deployed in one year.
The number of active satellites has increased 📈 nearly eightfold: there were fewer than 2,000 satellites in service at the start of 📆 2019.
🇨🇳 #China continues its rise with 1,286 active satellites, up from 1,025 a year ago, an increase of more than 25%.
🇪🇺 The #European OneWeb constellation has 651 active satellites in orbit https://www.lookupspace.com/blog/earth-orbit-passes-15-000-active-satellites-elon-musks-starlink-now-controls-two-thirds-of-the-worlds-active-satellite-fleet

“For years, subscribers to #satellite services have installed dishes at their homes for watching TV or connecting to broadband.
Smartphone customers, by contrast, aren't normally required to set up a basestation and cover the related property fees.
#Musk wants to change all that through a widely ridiculed plan of #Starlink.
Experts with anything positive to say about it seem to be rarer than Mars landings.”
It will fail.

Scientists turn #Starlink into a giant scanner for #Earth’s upper #atmosphere
A new way to “see” Earth’s elusive upper atmosphere could help make increasingly crowded orbits safer.
Using orbital data from roughly 1,200 Starlink satellites, they reconstructed changes in atmospheric density about 500 kilometers above Earth. The approach could sharpen #satellite tracking and help reduce the growing risk of collisions in increasingly crowded orbits. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260812015212.htm #space -
