距地面160至2000公里的轨道区域; 用于部署卫星星座的近地轨道

EN: The region of space surrounding Earth, typically defined as an altitude between approximately 160 kilometers (100 miles) and 2,000 kilometers (1,200 miles) above sea level, where satellites and the International Space Station orbit. This area is characterized by low atmospheric drag and is heavily utilized for communications, Earth observation, and scientific research.; A specific orbital regime used for deploying constellations of small satellites, such as those used for global internet connectivity, due to its proximity to Earth which allows for lower latency compared to higher orbits.

As geopolitical tensions rise, low Earth orbit has become increasingly contested.

随着地缘政治紧张局势加剧，近地轨道正变得日益具有争议性。
The company plans to launch thousands of satellites into low earth orbit to provide high-speed internet access globally.

该公司计划向低地球轨道发射数千颗卫星，以提供全球高速互联网接入。
