Musk\u2019s aerospace firm claims processing needs due to the expanding use of AI are already outpacing \u201cterrestrial capabilities\u201d. It would increase the number of SpaceX satellites in orbit drastically. Its existing Starlink network of nearly 10,000 satellites has already been accused of creating congestion in space, which Musk denies. The new network could comprise up to one million solar-powered satellites, according to the application filed on Friday with the US Federal Communications Commission \u2013 which does not specify a timeline for the plan.
