Earlier this month, SpaceX launched 49 Starlink satellites into orbit, but almost all of them deorbited after a geomagnetic storm caused by a solar flare.

Satellites will not exist in the form of space debris, tk. rushed towards the Earth and burn up in the atmosphere. Several burning satellites were caught on video camera of the Sociedad de Astronomia del Caribe organization in Puerto Rico on February 7.

According to astronomer Mark Langbröck, in the near future, people will be able to see even more Starlink “fiery deaths” in the sky after a failed launch.
