Summary
The Starlink-11084 [DTC] satellite, also known as Starlink 11084, is a communication satellite part of the Starlink v2 Mini configuration by SpaceX (SPXS). Launched on May 10, 2024, from AFWTR SLC4E using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle, it has a length of 0.3 meters, diameter of 4.1 meters, and span of 29 meters. The satellite weighs 700 kilograms dry with a launch mass of 730 kilograms. It is equipped with D2C payload and an optical inter-satellite link, powered by solar arrays and batteries. The motor propulsion system uses Argon ion thrusters for maneuvering.
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.
