Summary
STARLINK-4664, also known as Starlink 4664, is a communication satellite operated by SpaceX (SPXS). It was launched on September 11, 2022, from Launch Complex 39A at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle. The satellite measures 0.2 meters in length and has a diameter of 2.8 meters with a span of 9 meters. It weighs 305 kilograms at launch and has a dry mass of 290 kilograms. Equipped with Ku/Ka-band payload and optical inter-satellite link, it also features solar arrays and batteries for power supply as well as krypton ion thrusters for propulsion. The satellite is part of the Starlink Group 4-2-05 communication mission.
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.
