Starlink space internet has a problem with the brand new Starlink V2 satellites mini. PSpaceX satellite observers have noticed a decrease in their altitude over the past week. Elon Musk he subsequently confirmed these speculations.

A few days ago, there were speculations that SpaceX's new Starlink satellites launched in February during the Group 6-1 mission had some problems in orbit. The first thoughts of astronomers were directed towards considerations that the new generation of satellites is being tuned by SpaceX in orbit. "There's a lot of new technology to be found in Starlink V2, so as expected we're running into some issues. Some satellites will be de-orbited, others will be thoroughly tested before being moved to a higher altitude,” he said Elon Musk. Currently, all the new generation satellites are still in orbit. The problems also explain why SpaceX returned to older satellites for the next launch. The new satellites are much smaller than their predecessors. They are also equipped with modernized antennas and cheaper argon nozzles. The fact that there have been problems with new technologies is nothing new for SpaceX. However, it is generally assumed that the company will soon solve everything and start launching V2 satellites mini will be back soon.
