China To Build Weapon That Can Stop Starlink Satellites From Offering Internet

The Chinese military is planning to develop a weapon that can destroy Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites if it threatens their “national security", media reports said.

Starlink is a satellite constellation system operated by Musk’s SpaceX and provides broadband internet services to commercial and military users around the globe. With more than 2,300 satellites in orbit, it is generally believed to be indestructible because the system can maintain proper functioning after losing some satellites.
