SpaceX's Innovative Solution: Using Starlink For Continuous Spacecraft Communication


#spacexstarship #spacex #spacexpriority
Hello friends,
Welcome back to another episode of Engineering Today, and I hope you’re all having a great time.

SpaceX is testing a new way to communicate with spacecraft that are coming back to Earth from orbit. Usually, when a spacecraft re-enters the atmosphere, it loses contact with the ground because of a plasma layer that forms around it. This plasma blocks radio signals and makes it hard to monitor the spacecraft’s status and location.
