The head of the European Space Agency said Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, was to set the rules in this sector because of the growth of Starlink satellite internet services.
“You have a man who has half the world’s active satellite,” said Joseph Ashbaker, Director General of Agency. That’s a worthy thing to do, and it must end there. ”
He added that the whole world, including Europe, did not work quickly.
According to the presentation by the Federal Communication Commission, SpaceXstarlink, which provides internet services to the world with orbiting satellite assistance, has more than 1750 satellites active in orbit and serves more than 140,000 users in 20 countries in 20 countries. Provide
There are currently 4,000 active satellites in orbit, according to the Cellus Track data.
Ashbaker said the lack of coordination and government support for Starlink’s expansion in European countries has prevented European companies from launching satellites in the commercial space industry and in low earth orbits.
According to sources, Germany has asked the International Telecommunications Union to allow the Star Elon Musk link to launch around 40,000 satellites.
Satellite internet services have also been given green lights by US agents to launch more than 30,000 satellites.
The head of the European Space Agency said that the room would be very limited in terms of frequency and orbital space. The European government must provide European Internet providers with the same footing on the market.
He added that the reaction from all over the world was not fast.
Ashbaker asked the European government to stop Elon Musk from building monopoly in the space industry.
