The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carried all the Starlink internet satellites on 3rd February beyond the atmosphere will not reach to the orbit which they calculated. The geometric storm has taken place due to which it has impacted on the satellites SpaceX revealed, and 40 of them will be re-entering or already entered in Earth's atmosphere.

The newly launched 49 satellites that had launched from Kennedy Space Center, Florida from Starlink has suffered a big hit where almost 40 satellites got damaged because of a geomagnetic storm in recent times. This ambitious Starlink project was of the tech billionaire Elon Musk.

The satellites launched on Thursday have been badly hit by the geomagnetic typhoon on Friday. SpaceX in recent news stated that the reason for the storm is due to the heating of the environment. Atmospheric density grew at lower altitudes. GPS statistics endorse that the escalation of pace and severity of the typhoon brought about 50% increase in atmospheric drag than the previous times.
