@DJSnM@DrKnowItAll16 But isn't that the crunch wrap ablating? It would still need replacing but it looks like we can trace white lines back to the source.
@SawyerMerritt The ingathering begins! All the first principles proteges from years past left, worked on the Musk Macro-Project, and the very best are being paid to return.
@KiwiThinker Come to think of it, Starship and Optimi built infrastructure on the moon makes the Centauri system potentially within reach this century!
@KiwiThinker After the chip fab and rail gun on the moon they should build LHC (Lunar Hadron Collider) to do an antimatter fission/fusion rocket. I know nothing about it but Grok says it is a stepping stone hybrid to a full antimatter rocket. Speeds of 0.1c! Alpha Centauri in 40years!
@CostcoPM@SawyerMerritt One starship of V3 Starlink satellites is worth about 20 current F9 launches. How that translates over to Data Center Launches is unknown, but Starship's ability to launch much bigger satellites and more of them will produce order of magnitude change in constellation capability.
