Starlink is one of SpaceX's most ambitious plans where it aims to launch 12,000 satellite mega constellation into space. The company's project aims to offers high-speed internet service to customers around the world, including remote and underserved areas. The mega constellation will help the company establish low-cost internet services to most of the remote locations globally. The first of these satellites was launched into the orbit earlier last year, with the private company steadily increasing the numbers month by month.

NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre released a statement and said that SpaceX is set to launch 60 Starlink satellites from Falcon 9 which will mark the company’s 10th mission in support of the constellation of networked satellites which is called the Starlink. It further added that the goal of the project is to form a network that will help in offering internet services to the locations that are not yet connected and to provide a reliable and affordable internet connection around the world.

The project has also drawn some criticisms from astronomers who have claimed that these satellite constellations were actually obscuring the view of the cosmos.
