SpaceX accelerates the speed of occupying space low-orbit satellite resources.
The "Today Florida" front page reported that a Falcon 9 rocket successfully launched the Starlink 10-57 mission on September 5, 2025, from Launch Complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Starlink 10-57 is the 27th flight of the first-stage booster supporting this mission. This booster previously launched CRS-24, Eutelsat HOTBIRD 13F, OneWeb 1, SES-18 and SES-19, as well as now 23 Starlink missions.
Occupying satellite spectrum and orbital resources is the main goal! Satellite spectrum and orbital resources are important strategic resources, and countries follow the International Telecommunication Union's "first to register, first to occupy" rule. High-orbit resources are nearly saturated, and low-orbit resources are being developed. The best spectrum is occupied first, and the essence of Musk's Starlink project is to occupy satellite spectrum and orbital resources, which can occupy the best spectrum and orbital resources.
SpaceX's main purpose of accelerating the launch of Starlink rockets is to provide global high-speed internet services through the deployment of low-orbit satellite constellations, and to support the upgrade of military communication networks.
1. Core Objectives
The Starlink program started in 2014, aiming to build a global low-orbit satellite internet constellation by launching approximately 42,000 satellites (thousands have been deployed as of 2025). This system can significantly improve network coverage efficiency, especially providing low-cost, low-latency internet access services to remote areas.
2. Military Applications
Starlink satellites have high bandwidth and anti-interference characteristics, which can greatly improve the accuracy of the US military's navigation and positioning systems and support military tasks such as intercontinental missile interception. Its military communication capabilities seamlessly switch with commercial networks, further consolidating the United States' strategic advantage in space.
