Footage of Star Link satellite scattering in the sky captured in the eye of the camera



Footage of the crash of two ill-fated SpaceLink satellites from the SpaceX in Puerto Rico was captured by the eye of the camera.

In the footage, the destroyed satellites can be seen flying in the night sky.

About 40 satellites were damaged last week by a geomagnetic storm.

This footage of satellites scattering in the sky was captured by a camera of a non-profit astronomical organization in Puerto Rico.

Since February, more than 2,000 StarLink satellites have been launched as part of a consortium of satellites designed to provide satellite internet in different parts of the world.

But SpaceX announced earlier this week that 40 of its latest 49 satellites, to be launched on February 3, will re-enter the Earth's atmosphere or have been destroyed.

Starlink satellites are not very large. They measure 10.5 feet x 5.25 feet and weigh about 260 kilograms. Therefore, after entering the atmosphere, there is very little chance that any of the satellites will remain. In other words, they will not target people on earth.

In the new footage, two objects can be seen at one minute intervals. Both are re-entering the Earth's atmosphere and disintegrating.
