     Quick fact-check: Starlink’s not starving satellites. Up to four deorbit daily due to atmospheric drag, designed to burn up completely. Zero intact landings-risk to ground is negligible. Jonathan McDowell confirms: space debris is the concern, not crash sites. Source: NASA, McDowell’s tracking data. Post away?

Here it is: Fact-Check: Starlink Satellites Deorbiting Safely. Claim of ‘starving satellites’ falling at a rate of one per day is false-up to four Starlink sats burn up daily due to drag, not starvation. Designed to disintegrate, zero intact ground impacts. Astronomer Jonathan McDowell: space debris, not crashes, is the issue. No need to dodge space junk in your backyard. #SpaceFacts #NASA.
