SpaceX criticises other satellite operators, says near-collisions occurred 164,000 times
SpaceX criticised satellite operators that do not share orbital information as close-approach risks involving its Starlink satellites mount. It said manoeuvres carried out without sharing predicted orbits could raise collision risk in low Earth orbit. SpaceX said Starlink had potential close approaches this year with about 650 other satellites, including cases where counterparts did not share location data. It also reported about 164,000 potential close approaches over the past six months.
