paulus 26 Posted November 3, 2023 Report Share Posted November 3, 2023 His ambition is 40.000 satellite's. I know Russia tried to hack some American system and his staff neutralised the treat and hacked there computer's within half an hour, something that would have taken weeks if the Pentagon had done it themselves, Makes you wont why someone would want/need 40,000 satellite's just for broadband Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They could do that with many less satellites if they were far away and so could see a large portion of the earth but then user experience would be shite because the signals would take so long to travel the distance it’d create lag for users. So you put the satellites in a lower orbit which means they see less of the earth so you need more for continuous global coverage. You then need to multiply by two or three to add system redundancy. Its interesting to me because the sheer number makes the system immune to anti satellite weapons. Until there’s an advancement in them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You mean they need line of sight to communicate with each other, Yes i have watched "Independence day" Lol. Surely that amount of satellite's in low orbit is an issue for anything else to be launched? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But yeah space junk is a growing concern in that sector. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 20,499 Posted November 3, 2023 Report Share Posted November 3, 2023 Elon Musk's Starlink satellites are "leaking" signals WWW.FREETHINK.COM Even in a “radio quiet zone” in outback Western Australia, the satellites' emissions were far... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
