SpaceX Starlink V3 Satellites
In 2026, SpaceX will launch many larger V3 Starlink satellites from the reusable Starship.
Dummy versions of the V3 Starlink were launched on SpaceX Starship flights 10 and 11.
The Starlink V3's 60-meter span is comparable to a blue whale, while AST Space Mobile Block 2's array rivals a tennis court.
