The US Army is looking at using the SpaceX Starlink mega-constellation. SpaceX, which is already planning the world’s largest low-Earth-orbit broadband constellation by far, filed paperwork in recent weeks for up to 30,000 additional Starlink satellites on top of the 12,000 already approved by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission. The constellation could conceivably consist of 42,000 spacecraft.
