> And no, that launch rate does not "wreck the planet".

What's the impact of the atmospheric pollution from both launches and the burn of space craft and satellite's burning up on re-rentry?

Although it's a bit rougher design wise I prefer https://traksy.uk/live

Amongst other things it shows all the signalling segments so you can actually see where your train is when waiting e.g. https://traksy.uk/live/T+CDU+BRI+d+@2026-07-06T15:00/S+G1548...

20,000 launches is 11 Starship launches a day for 5 years

It's an unsustainable rate and even if we do get to that rate it'll wreck the planet

According to the authors numbers it'll take at least 20,000 launched to put a million satellite's in orbit

And that's before you consider the issues of operating a DC in space

It's just a a load of nonsense

> The valuation of SpaceX is due to AI, namely the revenue they get for renting out their GPUs to companies that actually have AI customers, as their own AI tech has not panned out.

I’ve got a Pixel 4a as a second phone just for work… it’s a perfectly fine phone

I’ve stopped using it because Google abandoned it after 18 months

There are plenty of Android phones out there that are usable but get abandoned by the makers
