Will Musk's Starlink program, which will launch 12,000 satellites, invade the airspace of other countries?

Musk's Starlink plan is actually a copy of the "Star Wars" proposed by President Reagan, and it is also a continuation of Siemens' "Iridium Plan", which has a strong militarized flavor and the shadow of the BACKGROUND of the US military.

The Starlink project is a plan announced by Musk, the founder of SpaceX, in 2015.

From the surface of the Starlink plan, it is to compete for the satellite Internet market, in essence, or to serve the US military.

We all know that all the facilitation technologies that are currently applicable to civilian use are first applied to the military.

To use a very common analogy: the original communication technology of mobile phones evolved from wartime transmitters, and television image signals came from deep-water submarines.

There are also atomic bombs, military trucks, motorcycles, etc., all of which are first satisfied with the military. When these technologies and equipment reach a saturated state and the technical iterations are no longer applicable to the battlefield, they are gradually transformed into civilian use.

Therefore, Musk's Starlink plan is to seize the satellite Internet market, which is just a cover.

Of course, there is no doubt that the Starlink Project can indeed achieve the goal of connecting everything.

With so many satellites, communication can reach all aspects of the earth, and the signal can be reached without dead ends in the world. Whether in the deep sea, the desert sand sea, the unmanned alpine wilderness, the bottomless cavern, the satellite signal can be fully covered.

Similarly, so many satellites can also monitor all the data of enemy satellites, and can also interfere with enemy satellites, making enemy satellites a waste star.

In short, after the Starlink Program, everything on the enemy side will become completely transparent, and it will become easy to fight the enemy.

At 4:15 on February 7, 2018, SpaceX's Falcon Heavy carrier rocket was successfully launched for the first time at the Kennedy Space Center in the United States, and two first-stage booster rockets were fully recovered.

At 9:12 a.m. on February 25, 2022, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched 50 Starlink satellites at the Vandenberg Space Force base in California.

In the future, according to Musk SpaceX's Starlink plan, the number of satellites launched in the future will reach 42,000.

Will launching so many satellites at once infringe on the airspace of other countries?

What is airspace?

All the land area covered by the national territory, the sea area, the exclusive economic belt of the sea and the entire space to which it belongs perpendicular to the atmosphere within 100 kilometers, this is the territorial airspace of each State.

It is also common knowledge to know that when Musk launches satellites, he will never launch them in other countries.

Therefore, when Musk launches a satellite, as long as it is on the U.S. mainland, there is no violation of the airspace of other countries.

So, will Musk's launch of tens of thousands of satellites flying in space orbit infringe on the airspace of other countries?

Nor will it.

According to the Outer Space Treaty, space with an atmosphere of more than 100 km belongs to the Global Shared Zone.

Therefore, as long as the launched satellite does not orbit at a high speed below 100 kilometers of the atmosphere, the satellite will not infringe on the territorial airspace of other countries.

Musk launched satellites, all small satellites, the cost of launching each satellite from the previous $60 million to $500,000 a piece.

If these low-cost satellites fly at altitudes of less than 100 kilometers, of course, this violates the territorial airspace of other countries and can be destroyed.

In fact, how could satellites fly in the atmosphere?

It's impossible! Because once the satellite flies in the atmosphere, it will burn only slag.

Based on the existence of the above facts, satellites flying in space orbit do not infringe on the airspace of other countries.

If Musk really launches so many satellites into space, will it endanger the security of other countries? And what to do?

There is no doubt that so many satellites have taken off, which will definitely pose a military threat and national defense and security to countries around the world.

There are many types of satellites, spy satellites, military satellites, meteorological satellites, remote sensing satellites, etc., these high-tech satellites, all the time sensitive information and data.

At this time, it is useless to verbally criticize and write strong protests, and we can only find a way to counter it.

Some people say that it is okay to use ground weapons to land satellites?

It works, but it costs a lot.

In fact, the technology of shooting down satellites, which has been experimented and matured as early as 2005, is only expensive and unrealistic.

Some netizens said with a big brain hole: Weaving a skynet that intercepts satellites in outer space, is it okay?

You tell me?
