Love how you also completely ignore the dozens of other companies designing and/or beginning deployment of massive satellite constellations just like Starlink. Some of them even multiple times larger than what Starlink is aiming for.

There very much are astronomers that have said they do not want ANY LEO satellite constellations.

This isn't just a Musk thing.
