sats were listed at mag 4.7 so I did not go out and look up -
3 nights after launch - quick

These are V2 starlink sats with Laser communications between other sats -
were at 300km in a day after launch - final orbit 530 km -

its been a long time since see starlink sats on V3 video recording -
once sats are in final orbit they are very dim -

last year I saw starlink sats in recordings
many of sats were still in low ish orbit -
now orbit is raised quickly - weeks not months -

2 yrs ago I saw starlink train that had one Test Dark sat -
dark sat was Much dimmer than the others - almost not visible -
majority of early sats have been de orbited already - on purpose -

spacex made better design what uses a shade -
shade works even better -


Starlink works Great - I have roaming turned ON can use anywhere -
