Summary

The Starlink-3395 satellite, also known as Starlink 3395, was launched on January 19, 2022, from LC39A at AFETR using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle. It is owned and manufactured by SPXS (SpaceX) for communication purposes. The spacecraft measures approximately 0.2 meters in length with a diameter of 2.8 meters and has a span of 9 meters due to its solar arrays. Its dry mass is 275 kg, and it weighs 297 kg at launch. It is equipped with Ku/Ka-band payload capabilities for communication, optical inter-satellite links, and Krypton ion thrusters as motors. Power is supplied by solar arrays and batteries. The satellite's shape consists of a box with an extended pan configuration.

Starlink is a satellite constellation developed by SpaceX with the aim of providing global broadband internet coverage. Thousands of small satellites are deployed in low Earth orbit (LEO), enabling high-speed internet access even in remote areas. However, the rapid increase in satellites raises concerns about space debris and the potential for collisions, which can lead to further debris creation and endanger other spacecraft. Additionally, the sheer number of Starlink satellites can affect astronomical observations by increasing light pollution. Proper deorbiting plans and international coordination are essential to mitigate these challenges and ensure long-term sustainability in space.
