SpaceX has just launched two of their experimental satellites. The satellite was flown in to test Starlink concepts. It is a concept to cover the earth with 12,000 satellites that have high-speed broadband internet access.
"Today Falcon (SpaceX launcher rocket) launched two satellite trials for the global broadband internet," cuit Musk on Wednesday (21/2) before the launch was finally postponed to Thursday (22/2).
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk named these two experimental satellites as Tintin A and Tintin B. But the official names of the two satellites are not that funny. The original names of both are Microsat-2a and Microsat-2b. Together with two satellites is also also flown Spanish satellite named Paz.
After Falcon 9 slid into orbit, the Paz satellite was spread and followed by Microsat-2a and Microsat-2b.

High speed satellite
The concept of Starlink is mentioned will provide the internet with 180 times higher than the average speed of the global internet. The internet speed offered is also 40 times faster than the average internet satellite currently offered.
In the next few years, SpaceX is likely to launch 4,425 Starlink satellites into orbit with an altitude of 1,100 km-1200 km above the earth's surface. In addition, this constellation will also be added by 7,500 space ships in lower orbits.
So there are a total of about 12,000 satellites to be launched. Based on the count of the Union of Concerned Scientist, that figure is twice as many as the total satellite ever slid to date,
