Starlink India is now lowering all satellites in 2026 to boost space safety.
Elon Musk is officially prepping for his main character moment in our skies. Before the big launch, the company is lowering its satellites to 480 km because space is getting way too crowded.
- Lower orbits mean less junk and fewer crashes for Starlink India.
- Moving closer ensures failed satellites burn up 80% faster in the atmosphere.
- Starlink India must also follow strict local data safety rules.
- The government is finally sorting out the spectrum for Starlink India.
- Security checks remain the final boss before the official rollout.
👉 Why this matters: As we get closer to high-speed satellite internet, SpaceX is proving they can play by the rules—keeping our night sky clean while finally bridging the rural digital divide.
