Space Safety

Current SOCRATES data indicates a manageable conjunction risk environment for Starlink assets, with two MODERATE-risk events identified among ten total tracked events in early April 2026. The highest-risk conjunction involves STARLINK-6303 and STARLINK-6281 on Apr 8, 2026 at 18:19 UTC, with a maximum collision probability of 17.4% and minimum approach distance of 43 meters—the closest approach of the tracked events. Concurrently, four Starlink satellites are predicted to reenter Earth’s atmosphere between Apr 5-7, 2026, with decay windows ranging from 240 to 1440 minutes, representing routine end-of-life operations rather than anomalous degradation.

Constellation Status

There have been no changes to the Starlink constellation since the last check. The constellation currently consists of 11,724 total launched satellites, with 10,177 currently in orbit, 10,168 of which are operational, and 1,547 that have decayed from orbit.

  • Total Launched: 11724
  • Total On Orbit: 10177
  • Total Working: 10168
