By Version

  • V1 / Gen1

    Includes V1.0 and V1.5 shells in the planet4589.org Gen1 subtotal.

    3,203 in orbit3,191 working
  • V2 Mini / Gen2

    planet4589.org Gen2 subtotal (V2 Mini and V2 Mini/Opt shells).

    7,890 in orbit7,887 working
  • V3 / Gen3

    Starship Flight 14 (Starlink Group 31-1) on 28 September 2026 deployed 26 V3 satellites. SpaceX reported contact with all 26; they are in on-orbit checkout and orbit-raising, not yet counted as serving customers. The 31 August census on planet4589.org predates this launch and listed 20 earlier V3s that failed to reach orbit.

Inclination Shells

Same four inclination bins as the ground-track colours. Counts are planet4589.org planes grouped to those bins; they sum to the in-orbit total above.

  • 53° · ~550 km

    Main mid-latitude shells (53.0° and 53.2°).

    7,812 in orbit
  • 43° · ~560 km

    Lower-inclination planes for denser coverage at temperate latitudes.

    1,496 in orbit
  • 70° · ~530 km

    High-latitude shell.

    1,328 in orbit
  • 97° · ~560 km

    Near-polar sun-synchronous planes.

    483 in orbit

Ground Tracks

Subset of 12 satellites, not the full constellation. Three each from about 53°, 70°, 43°, and 97° inclination shells. Tracks are one revolution from each satellite’s published GP epoch, propagated with SGP4. Positions are not invented.

Live Positions Starting…

Live SGP4 motion from the published GP set, not GPS. Solid recent trail is the last 15 minutes; dashed is the next 8 minutes. Colours are inclination shells. Land from Natural Earth 110m (public domain). Click a track, or use Select in the table. Pause Motion stops the looping trail animation.

Visible Trains

Times when a recent launch is still a string of lights: dark sky, satellites in sunlight, at least 20° up, three or more in the same pass.

Revenue, Profit, and Customers

Drag the year to move through prospectus history and a naive projection to 2030.

Connectivity revenue, trailing twelve months

Connectivity operating income, trailing twelve months

Reported

Solid line is prospectus history. After March 2026 the dashed line holds the last reported growth rate still. That is not a SpaceX forecast. Revenue and profit after year-end 2025 are trailing twelve months: 2025 plus Q1 2026 minus Q1 2025. The connectivity unit is primarily Starlink.
