On January 24, 2021 SpaceX released a new group of 10 Starlink satellites, the first Starlink satellites in polar orbits. The launch surpassed ISRO 's record of launching the most satellites in one mission (143), taking to 1,025 the cumulative number of satellites deployed for Starlink to that date.
Starlink 3680 (or Starlink 2022-025P) launched in this stack has maneuvered and moved to Shell 1 of starlink satellites. Possibly some other satellites in this stack will also joining the Shell 1 Starlinks in near future.

At 6,000 satellites, SpaceX has effectively hit the halfway mark. 3 million Starlink subscribers A second satellite tracker, Orbit.ing-now.com , reports there are currently just under 10,000 ...
At higher densities, production exceeds decay, leading to a cascading chain reaction reducing the orbiting population to small objects (several centimeters in size) and increasing the hazard of space activity. [15] This chain reaction is known as the Kessler syndrome. [4] In an early 2009 historical overview, Kessler summed up the situation:
We now know how many of SpaceX’s Starlink broadband data satellites, developed in Redmond, Wash., can be crammed into the nose cone of a Falcon rocket. The answer to the ultimate question is 60.
SpaceX started operation of its Starlink constellation in late 2020. [16] As of 2 December 2020, 955 satellites have been launched and Starlink is in a public beta testing phase. OneWeb planned to start service in 2020 as well, [17] but filed for bankruptcy in March 2020 after 74 satellites were launched. [18]
