SpaceX's Starlink
There's currently now 200 satellites (5 Starlink 'trains' with 60 satellites per batch/train,)
in low orbit around the Earth;-
and an aim to create and fill the skies with 200 starlink 'trains' (12,000 satellites,)
all circulating in low orbit around the planet to improve internet service.
Everyone all over the planet will be able to see long trails of Starlink satellites
gliding across the nightsky at all times in the near future.
The creator (multi-billionaire Elon Musk) aims to generate enough global revenue profits to create a future city on Mars.

They resemble 'Santa's sleigh' in the sky, as the long trails of satellites reflect light.
Astronomers have branded this creation as a 'crime on humanity,'
due to the Starlink satellites obstructing telescopic views of the nightsky.
