Starlink satellites are designed for high-speed, low-latency global internet coverage. Each satellite weighs about 260 kg and features solar panels, phased-array antennas, and ion thrusters for maneuverability. They operate in LEO at altitudes of 340–550 km, ensuring fast data transmission. The network uses inter-satellite laser links to improve coverage and reduce reliance on ground stations. With thousands already launched and more planned, Starlink is revolutionizing global connectivity. Future advancements include larger-capacity satellites and potential integration with deep-space communication systems.
