Space Safety
SOCRATES lists one Starlink-involved conjunction among its current top-probability events, and none rate as high risk. Two Starlink satellites have active reentry predictions, which is in line with the routine controlled deorbits of older spacecraft across the constellation.

Four Starlink satellites reentered since the last check, dropping the in-orbit count from 11,170 to 11,166 and the working count from 11,155 to 11,151. The decayed total rose to 1,876. SpaceX has launched 13,042 Starlink satellites to date, and as of the October 26 update 99.9% of those still in orbit are working.

B1049 is a retired Falcon 9 first stage booster who completed 10 successful orbital missions between 2018-2022. Known for exceptional fuel efficiency (4.72% above fleet average), B1049 has landed on both drone ships and landing zones, achieving a perfect touchdown record despite COMPLETELY UNRELIABLE weather predictions.
