SpaceX's Starlink could be months away from bringing the world online.

Quote:

Musk has said his goal for Starlink is to get to communities that have had almost no internet options until now. For these communities, Musk says, the “private beta” testing phase should begin in a few months, with public beta in six months.

50 50 chance right now for the weather to co-operate

Will be on ABC/CNN/MSNBC and Fox

100% chance for whatever Trump says will be fact checked

Entering the capsule now

Rockstar · 05-27-20, 01:34 PM

They closed the hatch

Rockstar · 05-27-20, 01:38 PM

Weather cell over Orlando is eroding so looks like things are a go

Skybird · 05-27-20, 02:14 PM

Those new space suits and helmets. I thought if an Imperial Stormtrooper and Space Kerbals would have a baby, it would look like this.

Onkel Neal · 05-27-20, 02:48 PM

T-45 minutes, go with propellant load

Onkel Neal · 05-27-20, 03:06 PM

T-28 minutes.

Kinda hard to believe they will get this liftoff on day 1 without any kind of hold. Fingers crossed.

Onkel Neal · 05-27-20, 03:17 PM

T-17 Launch abort

Rockstar · 05-27-20, 03:19 PM

oh poo 5.100 scrub

Skybird · 05-27-20, 03:19 PM

Bad luck, play another day. Weather is weather, but the technology they say has worked fine.
