SpaceX reveals plan for 1 million Starmind AI satellites

SpaceX published a Space Safety page outlining plans to operate up to 100,000 Starlink satellites and up to 1 million Starmind AI satellites for broadband and orbital compute. Clusters of about 10 satellites linked by roughly 10 Tbps will act as a single compute unit, with deployment of thousands of units starting no earlier than late 2027.

• Target: up to 100,000 Starlink and 1 million Starmind satellites
• Clusters of ~10 satellites with about 10 Tbps links
• Starlink logged risks with ~650 maneuvering satellites in 2026
• Deployment of thousands of AI satellites from late 2027
