Earlier this week, #SpaceX launched it's 7,001st Starlink
satellite! 🤯 Now, some are retired or failed, and so Jonathan MacDowell's stats say that there are currently 6,396 Starlink sats in orbit. Regardless, that is a HUGE number of satellites!
And they just launched 21 more Starlink sats yesterday!
Amazing to see how launch technology has evolved over these years.
