Summary
The satellite named STARLINK-11402 [DTC] or Starlink 11402 is a Starlink V2M spacecraft launched on November 9, 2024, from AFWTR SLC4E using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle. It has dimensions of 0.3 meters in length, 4.1 meters in diameter, and spans 29 meters. The dry mass is 700 kilograms with a launch mass of 730 kilograms. Manufactured by SPXS for the Starlink Group 9-10-01 payload, it has a box shape with solar panels and is owned by SpaceX (SPXS). Its stable date was November 9, 2024, at 07:14 UTC+25.

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.
