Space, Elon Musk defends himself: “In orbit there is room for everyone”

There is enough space around the Earth to put “tens of billions” of satellites into orbit.

The director of the European Space Agency Josef Aschbacher also warned that the thousands of satellites put into orbit by Starlink will reduce space for competitors.
