Former Navy Intel guy on CNN - We'd love Musk to saturate Afghanistan with Starlinks so we could stay in touch with our partners......
Everyday Astronaut (Scott Manely) space blogger - posts map, says only problem is that you need a friendly neighbor for downlink stations
Musk - in 4-6 months a lot of our sats will have sat to sat laser links, no local downlink needed
Also Musk - OBTW, can even bypass internet, straight comms from your terminal to theirs
And now you see why the services are throwing money at SpaceX for Starlink integration. And a multi-thousand sat network much more robust than a few high dollar geosat birds.....
