I’ve heard that before. But the main point of the paper is that drag is decreasing. So I’m curious to know how that impacts the stability of Starlink going forward. I doubt they have new figures after one day.

Thelen brought a jar of lithium iron phosphate to the podium. Grim-faced and wearing a navy blue suit, he poured out a small sample of the substance into a bottle for the audience to pass around. Then he began reading safety guidelines for handling it. “If you get it on the skin, wash it off,” he said. “If you get it in your mouth, drink plenty of water.”

Then, Thelen opened the jar again, this time dipping his index finger inside. “This is my finger,” he said, putting his finger in his mouth. A sucking sound was heard across the room. He raised his finger up high. “That’s how non-toxic this material is.” 

The No Gos were not impressed.

Worked fine for Midgley, after all.

"Modelled CO2 emissions scenarios from years 2000-2100 indicate a potential 50-66 percent reduction in satellite carrying capacity between the altitudes of 200 and 1,000 km."

That’s a severe reduction.

I imagine Starlink still plans to launch as many as legally allowed.

Imagine if Mr. “Occupy Mars” ends up being the guy to trap us here on Earth forever by clogging up space.

FWIW: The major technical advancements are usually public sector R&D.

The private sector doesn’t have the same tolerance for risk.

They just swoop in to package it and monetize it, while patenting every possible way to combine this publicly available tech.

Dissemination, huh? Sounds like one of them trans words… 😡

Everyone seem’s to be doing that now and I hate it.

This is a good situation for a therapist. Nobody here is gonna be able to give you an accurate assessment.

They wanna end the game while they’re at the top of the scoreboard.

Bring knowledge of CFCs to a time when we’re able to make them but not able to detect the ozone problems they cause.

Curtis Yarvin “joked” that we should turn poor people into biofuel, so…
