SpaceX launches more satellites
 
Earth got walloped by two intense G3 solar geomagnetic storms two days ago. They can cause satellites to drop out of orbit and burn up.. Made think about it when I heard on the news SpaceX was launching more satellites today. I reckon they must have satellites ready to launch on a moments notice.

  • And I thought of Musks threat to supply internet to Gaza.

Maybe,

Also, believe it or not and contrary to all the hate mail and articles written about Musk. He can’t do whatever he wants and supply foreign access to equipment technology unless he has approval of our government and complies with applicable laws.

When he interferred with the Ukrainian attack on Russian fleet units at Crimea he certainly did what he wanted. He knows no stae reason, only self interest, and nothing more than that. Everything idealistic he claims is just show. Also, he is irresponsible.



Zero trust in his sense of responsibility, and zero ability for empathy. He has proven often enough that of both he has none.

I don’t pay much attention his personal beliefs. But SpaceX is a civilian commercial business and is not allowed to operate outside our governments laws or its foreign policy decisions just because the mob thinks it’s OK. The U.S. government knows that, Ukraine knows that, Musk knows that, hell, even and I know that.

The U.S. Government has its own secure satellite system in orbit that it uses for military applications.

After shutting Starlink off in eastern Ukraine as troops were advancing on the enemy, SpaceX fenced off coverage, which prevented the Ukrainians from communicating effectively in the heat of battle and most likely cost lives. The action caused U.S. Department of Defense officials to worry about just how much power Elon Musk has over the Pentagon with SpaceX's proprietary technology like Starlink.
