Summary

The Starlink-31075 satellite, identified by NORAD CAT ID 58594 and OBJECT ID 2023-200F, is a part of the Starlink v2 Mini configuration manufactured by SPXS (SpaceX). Launched on December 19, 2023, from AFETR Launch Site at LC40 using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle, it has a dry mass of 700 kg and was launched with a total mass of 730 kg. The satellite measures 0.3 meters in length and has a diameter of 4.1 meters with a span of 29 meters. It is equipped with a Ku/Ka/E-band payload, an optical inter-satellite link, and Argon ion thrusters for propulsion. Its power system consists of solar arrays and batteries. The satellite's primary mission is communication, and it has the SHAPE attribute described as "Box + pan."

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.
