スペースX社によりますと、3日にフロリダ州から打ち上げられたインターネット通信用の衛星「スターリンク」49基のうち40基が既定の高度に達することができないため、安全のため地球に再突入します
According to SpaceX, 40 of the 49 satellites ”Starlink” for Internet communication launched from Florida on the 3rd cannot reach the specified altitude, so they will re-enter the earth for safety.

再突入すると大気との摩擦で燃え、地上には落下しないとしています
During re-entry, they burn due to friction with the atmosphere and do not fall to the ground.

太陽風と地球の磁場の作用で発生する地磁気嵐の影響で、スピードが遅くなり、目指す高度500キロメートルに到達することが難しくなったということです
Due to the influence of the geomagnetic storm generated by the action of the solar wind and the magnetic field of the earth, the speed slowed down and it became difficult to reach the target altitude of 500 kilometers.

「スターリンク」は最終的に4万基以上の衛星を打ち上げて世界中のどこでもインターネットに接続できるようにする計画で、アメリカなどで一部サービスが開始されています
”Starlink” is planning to finally launch more than 40,000 satellites so that it becomes possible to connect to the Internet anywhere in the world, and some services have started in the United States etc.
