The good and the bad for SpaceX

Elon Musk has come up with a very serious problem, his constellation of Starlink satellites to supply internet to the whole world could suffer from interference with 5g networks, which would cause total interruptions of the connection for 74% of the time, something that in practice as you can imagine it would make starling's internet service completely useless.

This data has come out of a new SpaceX analysis arguing that attempts by Dish's television provider company to open up the 12 gigahertz spectrum for both satellite use and the 5g mobile network would create interference that would spell the end from Starlink.

SpaceX has taken this matter to the US federal communications commission, this story was published by CNBC and came out through a letter where SpaceX asks to investigate Dish and also RS Access for “whether they filed intentionally misleading reports ”.

Currently, SpaceX has launched around 2,700 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit and has more than 400,000 subscribers worldwide, but the plans are much more ambitious. It wants to have 42,000 satellites in orbit and offer internet to a third of the world's population.

The previous one was bad news for Elon Musk and his company SpaceX, but there has also been other more hopeful news because the federal aviation administration of the US department of transportation has required SpaceX to adopt 75 measures to mitigate the impacts environmental aspects of his proposed plan to launch the Starship vehicle from Bocachica, Texas.

This is an imposition that has to be met, but by executing those 75 measures the launches of the Starship would finally be unlocked and if what the administration requests is fulfilled and in theory there would be no more problems, hopefully not to be able to see the ship for the first time. time in space in its orbital test, something that could happen in the same month of July.

So far the Starship prototypes, the prototypes are a little more than the outer part are not equipped, these ships to be able to transport humans, we have seen these prototypes fly up to several kilometers high and land vertically, however, to reach orbit it must exceed 150 km in height and for that it needs the thrust of a very powerful first stage, that job will be done by the Super heavy rocket.

When the startup stands on the rocket, the two elements will reach the surprising height of 120 meters, although even more surprising will be the method of landing the rocket, it will do it vertically, which is already a characteristic of the company, but in this case the rocket it is so huge that it will need the support of the giant mechanical arms.

Meanwhile, the ship will land vertically as we have already seen in other flight tests, but in the orbital test that will take place, we hope that soon we will not see the Starship land in this way, nor the rocket either, but they plan that both the rocket like the ship deserves, that they do it like the apollo ships did the rocket to splash down in the gulf of Mexico and the ship on the northwest coast of kauai in Hawaii.
