Starlink Satellites Over Ho Chi Minh
SpaceX's Starlink constellation consists of thousands of satellites providing internet coverage worldwide. Shortly after launch, these satellites are visible as a 'train' of bright lights moving across the sky.
When to See Starlink
- Best visibility 1-2 weeks after a new launch
- Dawn or dusk when satellites catch sunlight
- Clear skies with minimal light pollution
- New satellites appear as a line of 20-60 lights
Why Starlink is Visible
Newly launched Starlink satellites orbit close together before spreading out. The flat satellite bodies reflect sunlight, making them visible from Ho Chi Minh and other locations along their orbital path.
