What has happened to hundreds of Elon Musk's
satellites?
More than 200 satellites belonging to internet service
provider Starlink strangely disappeared this summer;
most likely due to electromagnetic storms. This
demonstrates the fragility of a set-up that could have
tens of thousands of units in orbit within a few years'
time.

A total of 212 Starlink satellites went missing between
July 18 and September 18, 2023, according to data from
satellitemap.space. This data is based on public
tracking information. This is not the first time that
satellites have failed to show signs of life, but such
a spike is unprecedented. SpaceX has yet to make a
public statement on the disappearance. So what could
have happened to them?

The satellites have been designed in such a way as to
burn up in the Earth's atmosphere at the end of their
life cycle. This cycle is estimated at around five
years, and the very first satellites were launched in
2019. The most likely explanation is that they were
victims of electromagnetic storms, caused by strong
solar flares. In February 2022, for example, some 40
satellites were lost just after launch due to an
electromagnetic storm.
To date SpaceX has already launched more than 4000
Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit, ie; at an
altitude of around 550 km, out of a program that will
eventually see more than 40,000. Its ultimate goal is
to cover the entire globe, offering high-speed internet
access to anyone, anywhere, even in the middle of the
ocean, in the desert or on the highest peaks on the
planet.
Starlink now boasts over a million users worldwide and
has recently been extended to include moving vehicles
such as cars, vans and school buses. The operator even
hopes one day to be able to provide high-speed,
reliable connections on airplanes.

Could be because... they were never launched in the first place. Musk came from PayPal, a moneylaundering operation for the cabal. SpaceX is also a moneylaundering operation for the cabal, just as Ukraine is a moneylaundering operation for the cabal. See how the money goes in and vanishes? Want to see it again? No. You don't.

Any theories? Or hypotheses?
Of course the finger will point to the Chinese or
Russians; but have blackops got SDI weapons?

Article wrote this as possible explanation:
'The most likely explanation is that they were
victims of electromagnetic storms, caused by strong
solar flares. In February 2022, for example, some 40
satellites were lost just after launch due to an
electromagnetic storm.'
I am inclined to think so too.

Yeah I saw that, but we watch those solar antics like
hawks... and the 2 month period when they went missing
(July 18 - September 18, 2023) wasn't very busy at all in
terms of electromagnetic storms. Something doesn't sit
right with me.
