Description:
One of the thousands of planned satellites of SpaceX's Starlink constellation. The main purpose of Starlink is to deliver low-latency internet to every single place on the planet. Each satellite has a small hall thruster that it will use to keep its altitude as well as autonomously dodge space debris and other satellites. Each satellite is designed to quickly decay and fall back to Earth at the end of its service life, or in case of a loss of control, so, contrary to what the media outlets say, the entire Starlink constellation is safe and will not trap humanity on Earth for thousands of years to come.


Controls:
When in orbit, use AG9 to unfold. This satellite can fold back. See the second screenshot for in-orbit look. The satellite is equipped with an ion thruster.
Due to the real satellite being extremely small and light, I employed heavy use of the tinker panel while making it. I know some of you are against it, so I'm disclaiming it now.

    Yeah the starlinks are sending high emf signals down to people that sometimes can't handle them. The internet part is the only good thing other then seing shooting stars every day
