Do you mean works or falls out of the sky routinely to litter the earth? We build lots as far as smaller ISPs go. You just don’t have any idea what you’re talking about.
Starlink is designed to demise on re-entry. It's a core criteria.
What does that mean to you exactly? All the ones that burnt up early weren’t designed for that lmao
It means it burns up on re-entry and doesn't litter the earth
What about all the ones he didn’t plan on having burnt up? Or didn’t you know about those
I'd love to hear more about this conspiracy theory, can you elaborate?
I think it's hilarious that you think some Starlink satellites AREN'T designed to burn up. They all will, someday.
Not a conspiracy theory. Maybe your science needs some brushing up https://www.independent.co.uk/space/starlink-satellites-elon-musk-space-b2759288.html
they all burn up, that article does not dispute that
