Space physicist, Denny Olivera, at the Goddard Dimension Gliding Center of the US Space Agency NASA, has led a study on 523 satellites of Starlink, which fell back to the earth over the years, over the years. This study has shown that geomagnetic storms produced by explosions in the Sun increases the stretch in the atmosphere and this makes the satellites fall from the orbit and re -enters the atmosphere. The NASA team wrote in this study, “It clearly shows that the existing solar cycle has a major impact on Starlink’s satellites. It is the highest number of satellites and solar activity in human history.”
According to Science Alert, solar cycle is a solar activity of 11 years of fluctuations. This includes the magnetic reversal, solar flames and coronal mass eduction of the sun’s poles. This is maximized when the polls turn back and decreases to minimum. This is the highest level of the 25th cycle. It is stronger than the forecast. However, it is not the strongest cycle recorded in the record.
It has affected all low-orbits satellites. Spacex’s Starlink Consultation has 8,873 satellites and 7,669 are currently operational. This is a unique case study to analyze the effect of maximum solar activity on satellite operations. This requires the satellites to adjust to remain on their way and some satellites can also fall from the orbit as the stretch increases. Spacex’s Starlink satellites provide high-speed internet in many countries. These include areas that have limited or no connectivity. Starlink’s function of satellites function is usually less than five years. After this, these satellites again enter into the atmosphere and burn before reaching the earth.
