SpaceX launches 57 new “VisorSat” Starlink satellites
SpaceX launched 57 new satellites in its latest push to get its Starlink cluster up and running. The company plans to start beta trials of its Internet service served by the satellites later this summer.
Here's a status update next to the most recent launch:
Current status of Visionsat 5:
Since 1996, Visionsat 5 has been operated by space firm Alstom. The satellite has been built at the heart of a densely packed network providing Internet connectivity to 70 percent of mainland France.
The satellite is 49.25 meters in diameter and will be divided into three parts on their journey. They will be deployed into low Earth orbits after being raised to stable positions by a series of rockets.
Every two years, SpaceSat teams manage to send one Spheresat into a second sun synchronous orbit – where a satellite will stay for eight years – after all phases have been completed.
The winning communications satellite is due to arrive in that low Earth orbit by 2017.
The company says that the communication network, which will export broadband Internet access to 134 million French citizens, is worth €220 million ($248 million).
With the work?"The first halves of the satellites", up and running in 2016, the Spheresat is due to be launched in 2017.
