American "Starlink" satellite explodes or loses contact
The "Starchain" announced on social media on the 19th that on the 17th, the orbit height of this satellite rapidly dropped by 4000 meters. Currently, the satellite remains roughly intact, tumbling, and is expected to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and completely burn up within a few weeks. The company is cooperating with the US Space Force and NASA to monitor satellite debris. The Australian Near-Earth Orbit Experimental Laboratory, a satellite tracking agency, stated that "dozens" of fragments that may be debris from the accident have been discovered, and more fragments may be found. The debris from this satellite may pose a threat to other satellites orbiting in space.
