Donald Trump's victory speech after his thumping win in the US election was full of praise for SpaceX CEO and X boss Elon Musk

The European Space Agency (ESA) is currently in discussions with SpaceX regarding the latter’s potential involvement in a global initiative to address space junk. With nearly 19,000 pieces of debris orbiting Earth, ESA’s Zero Debris Charter aims to halt the addition of new debris by 2030. As SpaceX operates about two-thirds of active satellites...

SpaceX successfully launched 23 more Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral, expanding the satellite network that aims to provide global internet coverage. The mission took place on 23rd October, 2024, marking the 18th flight of the Falcon 9 booster. Astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell reported over 6,400 satellites are now part of the Starlink const...

The government has announced that it will allocate spectrum for satellite broadband through administrative means, hours after Elon Musk labelled the auction approach sought by billionaire Mukesh Ambani as "unprecedented." Musk's Starlink has argued that the administrative allocation of licenses aligns with global practices, whereas Reliance argues ...

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said on Friday it had approved the return to flight of the SpaceX Falcon 9 vehicle after it reviewed and accepted the SpaceX-led investigation findings and corrective actions for the September mishap.

Elon Musk's Starlink satellites are causing significant disruption for astronomers worldwide. Scientists from the Netherlands, particularly the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON), have reported that the growing network of Starlink satellites is interfering with radio waves used for vital space research. The satellites, designed to p...

Dutch scientists from ASTRON are raising concerns about the second-generation Starlink satellites, claiming they cause significant interference with radio telescopes.

Brazil's Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes decided to lift blockages previously imposed on Starlink and X accounts after ordering the transfer of 18.35 million reais ($3.31 million) from the accounts to the country's national coffers.

SpaceX successfully launched the NROL-113 mission on 5th September 2024, sending classified spy satellites into orbit for the United States National Reconnaissance Office. The mission was SpaceX’s second launch of the day, following an earlier Starlink mission. The Falcon 9 booster landed successfully on the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You"...

Starlink had emerged as a fresh battleground between Musk and Brazil, as top court judge Alexandre de Moraes ordered the freeze of the company's accounts for possible use to pay fines owed by X, which is also owned by Musk.

Brazil's telecoms regulator threatened to sanction Elon Musk's satellite broadband company Starlink hours after its top court stood behind a controversial decision to ban social network X from the country. The development has stirred tensions between Brazil and Starlink chief Musk.

The FAA grounded the Falcon 9 after failing an attempt to land back on Earth during a routine Starlink mission, forcing the company's second grounding this year. SpaceX made the return to flight request for the workhorse vehicle on Thursday and the FAA gave approval on Friday. The agency said flights may resume "provided all other license requirem...

SpaceX's Falcon 9 successfully launched a batch of Starlink internet satellites into orbit early on Wednesday morning from Florida. The rocket's reusable first stage booster returned to Earth and attempted to land on a sea-faring barge as usual, but toppled into the ocean after a fiery touchdown, a SpaceX live stream showed.

On August 20, 2024, SpaceX successfully launched 22 new Starlink satellites, significantly expanding its global satellite network. The launch took place at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, with the Falcon 9 rocket lifting off at 9:20 a.m. EDT. This mission was particularly noteworthy because it involved a brand-new Falcon 9 rocket mak...

The affordable internet service Starlink is now operational on more than 1,000 aircraft, SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Thursday.
