Moreover, this is the first publicly described test of this system, which demonstrates the development of Chinese low-orbit groups against the background of the military use of Starlink.

Elon Musk's company plans to launch Starmind next year. According to new data from SpaceX representatives, they will be significantly more powerful and heavier than previously planned. In addition, they will be used in dense formations so that the signal transmission time between satellites in one node is minimal. The total capacity of each new satellite will be greater than that of the ISS, in total, the company has issued permission to place a million such systems in orbit at the same time.
