    Starlink is designed to demise on re-entry. It’s a core criteria.

        It means it burns up on re-entry and doesn’t litter the earth

          What about all the ones he didn’t plan on having burnt up? Or didn’t you know about those

            I’d love to hear more about this conspiracy theory, can you elaborate?

            I think it’s hilarious that you think some Starlink satellites AREN’T designed to burn up. They all will, someday.

              Not a conspiracy theory. Maybe your science needs some brushing up https://www.independent.co.uk/space/starlink-satellites-elon-musk-space-b2759288.html
