What happens after Disclosure Day?

These guys have the answers if you have time to watch. 107 minutes of riveting speculation about what happens next to the space-time continuum.

Highly satisfied.

It is 22 ms, 352 Mbps down, 53 Mbps up right now. It varies with satellite geometry.

I have the option for full motion operation; I think it is called Starlink Mini. I've never done this --> you can move the "house dish" to a new fixed location. Not sure if it is conveniently done (as in new location every evening).

4 MB/s even in the country is slow.

It was 1 MB/s when I moved here 25 years ago. 4 MB/s was HUGE.

Now we have 2 GB fiber. As some point more speed is unnecessary. You wind up waiting on the internet to catch up with you.

Rocket engines are still made in California.

SpaceX designs, manufactures, and assembles its primary rocket engines, including the Merlin, Raptor, and Draco families, at its facilities in the United States.

Design and Assembly: The majority of high-technology engineering, design, and initial assembly occurs at SpaceX’s main campus in Hawthorne, California.

Proud to be a Starlink beta tester and current user.

Not sure what it is now, but $500 for the dish/router and $120 a month a couple years ago seemed like an easy way to support the effort.

And it was way better than "country" internet where we rarely achieved the advertised 4 MB/s rate.

Shouldn't be too hard to find, although the body shape might not be so pleasing.

There is also the possibility the Senate will be dissolved and these dish rags will be wiping plates in Guantanamo.
