Starlink satellites on Orbit

While SpaceX’s Starlink is not the only satellite constellation in orbit, its satellites are the most numerous, and the collision avoidance maneuvers carried out by the vehicles can be measured in the tens of thousands. Starlink satellites are also deorbited at the end of their operational lives or will reenter naturally after several years if the deorbit fails.SpaceX boss Elon Musk has backed claims that the ballooning number of satellites in orbit around the Earth isn’t a problem, signing off on a comment stating that “10 times the number of spacecraft” would still not present a challenge. Do you think that SpaceX is overloading the space with satellites ?
