Abstract

On February 3, 2022, as part of the SpaceX program, the next Falcon 9 carrier with Starlink satellites was launched. The launch was unsuccessful, which led to the loss of 40 out of 49 satellites. According to SpaceX experts, the cause of this event was an increase in the density of the atmosphere in the intermediate orbit, due to a magnetic storm, followed by deceleration and loss of satellites. Based on the analysis of the geomagnetic situation, the article shows that it is not enough to limit ourselves to consider only a possible change in the density of the atmosphere as the cause of the catastrophe. Most likely, the reason is complex and involves, among other issues, a failure in the operation of the radio-electronic equipment of the satellites due to induced currents and their electrification.
星链卫星灾难性发射的地球物理方面
2022年2月3日,作为SpaceX计划的一部分,搭载Starlink卫星的下一艘猎鹰9号运载火箭发射升空。这次发射失败,导致49颗卫星中的40颗丢失。据SpaceX公司的专家称,这一事件的原因是由于磁暴导致中间轨道大气密度增加,随后卫星减速和损失。根据对地磁情况的分析,文章表明,仅仅把大气密度的可能变化作为灾难的原因来考虑是不够的。最有可能的是,原因很复杂,除其他问题外,其中包括由于感应电流及其通电导致卫星无线电电子设备操作失败。
