@Paulatics@mstdn.ca @sundogplanets@mastodon.social thé Starlink satellites are “disposable” because at their low orbit there is still air resistance so from the day they are launched, they start to slow down. Even the space station which is at higher orbit needs reboost at regular intervals to maintain its altitude.

@Paulatics@mstdn.ca @sundogplanets@mastodon.social Melon Husk’s request fir 1 million satellite orbits is to lock up these orbits so nobody else can use them without paying Melon Husk. Husk is taking advantage of the current easily bribable regine to gain control over these orbits as anti competitive measure. As with Hyperloop, Melon Husk has no intention to build a data centre in space.
