SKY WATCHERS! Want To Know When The Starlink Satellites Are In The Area??

June 4, 2020 9:10 am Published by

Elon Musk’s SpaceX launched 60 satellites into space Wednesday night as part of its Starlink fleet. According to SpaceX: “The goal of Starlink is to create a network that will help provide internet services to those who are not yet connected, and to provide reliable and affordable internet across the globe.”

This is the eighth batch of Starlink satellites, bringing the total number in orbit to nearly 500.

And they are really cool to watch!! Fox listener Rob Lumley shared with us (on our A1 Security Textline) the fact that there is a website that  you can sign up for notifications, so you can see them when they are in our area  https://findstarlink.com/

This website also tracks them https://www.heavens-above.com/starlink.aspx

Rob also informed us that when they get them all in orbit, (12,000 total) they say it will be amazing how fast the internet will be!

Thanks for sharing Rob!!!
