Every 90 minutes, they return to the same point (but a little further away). The satellites move really fast, and travel the entire world in 90 minutes. How can the satellites be visible again less than 2 hours after being seen? The older chains like Starlink-1, 2, 3 etc have spread out and are no longer visible as a chain, that's why this app doesn't include them anymore. These 60 satellites initially fly in a "chain" formation, but over time they spread out and move to their own orbits. Starlink is launched in groups of 60 satellites per launch. Where are the older Starlink groups, like Starlink-1, 2, 3, etc? Otherwise the results page will be very cluttered.
That way, when you see the first satellite in a chain, the rest will follow behind in that chain. So this app tracks only the first satellite in every "chain" of satellites. Many are in groups of 30-40 satellites, and fly in a "chain" formation. Why are there only a few satellites in this app? Doesn't Starlink have hundreds of satellites? So don't worry about the Live Map, the Results page is what you should believe. But because they're so high up in the sky, you can still see them. They travel nearly 500 km/300 miles EVERY MINUTE. The satellites move at an unbelievable speed. Why was the satellite very far away on the Live Map when it was supposed to be over me? Daylight-savings/summer/winter are already included, if required. The time is always local, you do NOT need to convert it. The smaller the number, the brighter it is.ĭIM means the satellite might not be very visible. Common Questions - What's the number next to BRIGHT/DIM?
