The Starlink satellites have been visible in the sky the last couple of nights, and there will be a few more opportunities to see the train of lights in the sky.
What are Starlink satellites?
Starlink is a satellite network developed by SpaceX, owned by Elon Musk. Starlink uses a network of more than 2,000 satellites orbiting Earth more than 340 miles up. The company is continuing to launch satellites in batches as part of its goal of providing high-speed broadband internet around the world, particularly in places with poor connectivity.
"Most satellite internet services come from single geostationary satellites that orbit the planet at 35,786 km," the Starlink website says. "Starlink is a constellation of thousands of satellites that orbit the planet much closer to Earth, at about 550km, and cover the entire globe."
