it's amazing this dork has 7000 satellites orbiting... or the fact he's already burning up 300 or 400 as they are already obsolete.. astronomers are literally unable to see past his junk into space....

From what I read, 7000 is nothing compared to what is coming. I hear there are vast fleets from multiple companies coming on line shortly. Many, many more disposable birds are coming.

And this will have many more functions than just internet communications. It will allow complete relative accurate real time plotting and mapping of all motion in the air and on all the surface. And probably under water to certain depths.

Eventually all traffic will be controlled with these 3D plotting fleets. Without human intervention. Just announce your destination.

Not to mention the continuous measurements of research. Just recording the data will be a AI task. Analyzing it will take lots of AI.

Data processing will consume more than all else combined.

Man’s highest energy demand and want(to save us from ourselves), will occur at the peak of fossil emission pollution.

Ironic.
