SpaceX gives rare look inside Starlink factory: 70 satellites a week and mini lasers

SpaceX is rapidly scaling Starlink production, now manufacturing 70 satellites weekly at its Redmond facility. They’ve also developed mini lasers for third-party satellite connectivity, tested at 25Gbps over 4,000 km. Starship’s upcoming test flight will deploy Starlink simulators, paving the way for larger satellite launches and expanded global internet coverage. A Texas facility produces 15,000 Starlink antenna dishes daily.
