WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.000
This is our first launch me production design satellite

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.600
system as part of our effort to launch a next-generation

00:00:05.600 --> 00:00:07.700
broadband internet satellite constellation.

00:00:07.700 --> 00:00:10.600
This will be fun pack is actually be the heaviest payload

00:00:10.600 --> 00:00:14.800
ever flown on a Falcon 9 rocket Wing roughly thirty thousand

00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:18.500
pounds each of those individual 60 satellites weighs about

00:00:18.500 --> 00:00:21.500
227 kilograms are 500 pounds each.

00:00:21.500 --> 00:00:23.800
So while they're smaller than a typical communication

00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:26.000
satellites, they're still pretty sizable when you stack them

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.700
all together and that flat panel design maximizes face allowing

00:00:29.700 --> 00:00:31.100
for a very dense lunch.

00:00:31.100 --> 00:00:33.700
Cuz you can see right on your screen right now how to take full

00:00:33.700 --> 00:00:37.600
advantage of that Falcon 9 launch capability throwing is also

00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:41.500
the very first Krypton propelled spacecraft ever flown aside

00:00:41.500 --> 00:00:44.700
from being the native planet of Superman Krypton also happens to

00:00:44.700 --> 00:00:47.200
be a nice blend of cost effective and efficient repellent

00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:48.200
for ION propulsion.

00:00:49.500 --> 00:00:52.800
He's ion thrusters and able to satellites to orbit raise maneuver

00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:55.400
in space and deorbit at the end of their useful life.

00:00:56.500 --> 00:00:59.700
The satellites also have a singular on orbit Solar Ray.

00:00:59.700 --> 00:01:03.200
This is 1 larger panel instead of two which minimizes potential

00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:06.600
points of failure solar cells are standardized and easy to integrate

00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:10.300
into the manufacturing process Starling satellites are also

00:01:10.300 --> 00:01:12.800
equipped with an autonomous Collision collision avoidance

00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:16.000
system to our knowledge is the first of any satellite constellation

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.700
ever the satellites use inputs from the Department of Defense

00:01:18.700 --> 00:01:23.200
has debris tracking system, super for Maneuvers to avoid collisions

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.700
a space true space debris and other spacecraft ability ability

00:01:27.700 --> 00:01:30.700
reduces human ever error, which allows for more reliable

00:01:30.700 --> 00:01:34.800
approach to collision avoidance in addition 95% of all the components

00:01:34.800 --> 00:01:36.400
on the satellites work to my zabal,

00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.500
which means that when you satellites are at the end of their

00:01:38.500 --> 00:01:40.700
life, they will be naturally slowed by the Earth's atmosphere

00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:44.300
and also do an ultimately be vaporized into dust as they re-enter

00:01:44.300 --> 00:01:48.400
at 95% impossible to satellite succeed current safety standards and

00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:51.400
future iterative designs will go even further shipping's

00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.200
with full 100% deniable material design.

00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:56.200
Also while flying at a lower

00:01:56.500 --> 00:02:00.300
2 of 550 km to ensure that the satellites will quickly and easily

00:02:00.300 --> 00:02:02.000
demise at the end of their life cycle.

00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.000
Once they reach the end of their life.

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.800
The satellites will utilize their onboard ion propulsion

00:02:06.800 --> 00:02:10.400
system to deorbit over the course of a few months in the unlikely event

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:12.300
that a propulsion system becomes inoperable.

00:02:12.300 --> 00:02:16.200
The satellites will naturally Paso B2K because of the spirit

00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:18.000
dragon probably can 1 to 5 years,

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:21.300
which is significantly less than the 25-year industry standard

00:02:21.300 --> 00:02:23.900
for low earth orbit over the thousands of years required

00:02:23.900 --> 00:02:24.900
if you're at a higher altitude,
