Elon Musk's SpaceX Starlink satellite breaks down in orbit; SpaceX says no threat to ISS

Starlink confirmed a satellite anomaly on December 17. Satellite 35956 lost communication after its propulsion tank vented. This caused a rapid orbit drop. A few trackable objects were released. Starlink is working with US Space Force and NASA to monitor them. The satellite is tumbling and will burn up in Earth's atmosphere soon.
