Sina Finance reported on March 31 that on March 30, the American space exploration technology company confirmed that a satellite from its satellite internet system "Starlink" had encountered an anomaly in orbit on the 29th, losing communication contact. The company and the "Starlink" mission team are investigating the cause of the incident, continuously monitoring the satellite and any trackable debris, and coordinating with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Space Force. Analysis shows that this incident will not pose a new risk to the International Space Station and its astronauts, as well as the upcoming "Artemis II" manned mission around the moon. US media reports suggest that this means that space exploration technology companies and other satellite constellation operators and rocket launchers must avoid these debris to prevent collisions.
