GOOD
Please do!
Mostly because I'm selfish... Astrophotography has been quite frustrating with all the damn starlink satellites ruining images. Lol
lmao
hunt them down xi
I want Starlink but as a utility that is free to the world. Payed for by everyone. No one should have control over a global internet.
The method was inspired by the hunting behaviour of whales, which work together in vast waters to channel small fish into their mouths, while ensuring the process takes the shortest amount of time to conserve energy.
Does this imply they expect the starlinks to run from the hunter satellites? Or was this an analogy that only made sense as part of a technical explanation that got copied out of context.

So much for any cell phones, gps, or anything above terrestrial technology if China did that
Aren't the Starlink satellites orbiting low enough that they could be taken down without putting debris in orbit for too long?
Starlink is too low to cause Kessler. They'd all fall into atmosphere and disintegrate, it was the main reason they didn't get too much opposition to do the project.
Even without China those disposable satellites would cause an issue. Or they would if they were high enough to matter
