A SpaceX Starlink satellite experienced an anomaly in orbit, losing communication while circling about 347 miles above Earth.

The incident occurred as a solar flare drew attention from NASA officials, though it did not pose a risk to the International Space Station or its crew.

SpaceX and Starlink teams are investigating the cause and plan to implement any necessary fixes.

Despite the event, officials confirmed that it will not affect the upcoming Artemis II launch, Fox Weather has reported.

The satellite loss and solar activity highlight ongoing monitoring of space weather and satellite operations.
