このコンテンツについて
Starlink’s impact continues to grow, with Elon Musk confirming via Instagram that Starlink internet is now available across Qatar, dramatically expanding connectivity in the region. These moves come amid continued excitement and controversy. A recent study led by Steven Tingay and cited in TS2 Space News found that Starlink satellites are unintentionally interfering with protected astronomical radio frequencies, appearing in nearly a third of astronomical images. This has sparked urgent calls for regulatory and technical solutions to ensure cosmic research can proceed unimpeded.
SpaceX is also responding dynamically to market forces. The low-Earth orbit satellite sector, driven by Starlink and its competitors, is projected to jump from $11.8 billion in 2025 to over $20 billion by 2030. This democratization of access is allowing a new era of participation in space from startups, universities, and emerging nations.
On the Starship front, development remains robust but not without setbacks. The massive rocket—now the world’s largest—has completed nine test flights, with the most recent launches meeting technical challenges. According to Wikipedia and Space.com, the upper stage has suffered losses in its last three flights, though the Super Heavy booster has been successfully recovered in several cases using the impressive catch arms at the launch tower. Starship remains central to both NASA and Department of Defense ambitions, but its most recent failures have forced the Federal Aviation Administration to issue brief ground stops at major Florida airports following high-altitude breakups.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of the Air Force recently canceled plans to build Starship landing pads on Johnston Atoll—a move prompted by environmental concerns and pressure from conservation groups, as reported by Space.com. The military is still considering other locations, highlighting the ongoing behind-the-scenes negotiations over how Starship technology will be used for rapid global cargo delivery.
On the social side, Elon Musk’s constant updates drive intense engagement on X, with fans celebrating SpaceX’s booster recoveries, sharing launch viewing tips, and speculating about the next major Starship milestone. The meme circuit has been abuzz with jokes about Starlink’s ever-expanding “sky train” and playful debates about how soon Starship will truly be ready for Mars.
