Higher-bandwidth LEO

It is perhaps a paradox of profitable space - mostly low-orbit space - that technology makes it obsolete. Noted just here recently is that we can have more ruthenium - from nuclear waste and stray neutrons - without mining it off asteroids. So here is an attempt to convince regulators we don't need the Starlink constellation.

I assume they're right. Simpler, smaller, and better satellites would be nice for telescopes down here.

I still want my asteroid mines tho'.

BACKDATE 9/14.
