#Satcomms
Elon did not invent space flight, satcomms, or AI but he has happily used decades of government funded research and resources to build his own private companies and wealth and greatly benefited from the privatization of these things

never realized how essential nightvision scope and satcomms access could be on a changing pad

And I know some foreign intelligence agency has the receipts if the fucking Dems would just ask them to look into it. You cant play around with SatComms and leave no trace.

So he wants to dominate:

- global SatComms 🛰️
- online comms 🐦
- space access 🚀
- US policy 🇺🇸
- now AI tech 🤖

He’s also openly Nazi, encourages fascism, has no issue being harmful to minorities and has an army of Muskbros, willing to do his bidding.

The writing is well and truly on the wall 🚩🚩
Feels like this is cashing out of TSLA and into AI because Xai isn't sufficient for the task, and he knows he's on the clock with TSLA.

I've gathered the upside of Predator, Reaper et al is they're immensely harder to jam. Downside is the rigidity and terrible latency of satcomms.

There are a million and one satcomms providers. Most thankfully not helmed by a pro-apartheid fascist in the pocket of the FSB.

I was told that Jodrell Bank and the other Radio Astronomy investment around that time, was critical in building skills that ended up becoming the UK SatComms industry. Anyone got any evidence / research around this?

And Fiber can't be moved. That capacity is there, forever.

But SatComms like Starlink can be throttled or even shut down at the source. You can't "own" it.

Imagine your entire info-structure being utterly dependent upon Elon's mood that day? Never more one bad batch of vitamin K from going dark.

they hoped to use satcomms instead of Musk's equipment. now these chances are reduced. not zeroed yet - they have enough sats on orbit yet. but fellow 🇺🇦 never stop the game of pikku hilja...

I dunno lad, it’s like no helical polarised satcomms array I’ve ever seen….

24 years ago at ESA Ministerial Council 2001👇

A visionary plan for Europe’s satcomms took shape, including approval of the Alphasat mission for fast connectivity and mobile services.

As #CM25 approaches, our ambition is unchanged: meeting Europe’s connectivity needs and strengthening its autonomy🌐

"I grew up in the mountains in Wales. With little light pollution, I always looked at the night sky, and became curious about stars and galaxies. So much so that I enrolled on an astrophysics course as a 13yo, which led me to study astrophysics at university. I now communicate about satcomms at ESA"

Musk doesn't mind much after the tRUMP Admin. quietly switched US Government SatComms from a long-held contract with Verizon to Starlink WITHOUT any bidding process. Guaranteed income and State Secrets.🤬
I LIKE Italy prim-minister, what a woman!

I'd love to work on this thing, and by that I mean cruising around the quiet zone maintaining the antenna array. I have no degree but three decades of RF, electronics, cabling and Satcomms experience.

Ofcom has lit the fuse on the smartphone space race, with the regulator making the UK the first country in Western Europe where mobile operators team up with satellite companies to deploy new “space-age” services.

If you've ever gone camping, walked 20 yards away from your campsite to go pee behind a tree, and looked up to find that you were completely lost in the dark, then the new Watch Ultra 3 is for you. It now features satellite messaging, which I tested on a weekend camping trip, and it's a significant improvement over satcomms on your phone.

It now features satellite messaging, which I tested on a weekend camping trip, and it's a significant improvement over satcomms on your phone. You're more likely to have your watch on your body in an emergency, and the battery life on the Watch Ultra 3 is quite a bit better—now up to 42 hours from a mere 36 on the Watch Ultra 2.

Billionaires have captured gov't. Another exhibit: USAID provided satcomms to Ukr, DoD contracted w/Starlink. A wartime aid agreement, legally under US govt auth.

Yet the regime is allowing a fash loyalist to act as de facto chief executive, commander-in-chief, & head of state, mafia style.
Ukraine is seeking approval by Elon Musk to use Starlink-equipped drones to strike Russian ballistic-missile launchers up to 200km inside Russia, according to the FT, as Kyiv faces a severe shortage of Patriot interceptors.
