Scheduled to arrived by 2030, but the EU is developing one and it's sounding pretty sweet: https://defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/eu-space/iris2-secure-connectivity_en
Pride goeth before the fall, they say. The hellish part is the wait.
Hey, rest of the Democratic world, there are a whole bunch of ex feds right now needing funds and direction for their anger. Maybe you should tap into them if you need someone to rid you of this meddlesome Chancellor.
Is there any evidence that Musk is right about Poland only paying "a tiny fraction of the cost"? Seems a strange comment to make
SpaceX is bleeding money but I guess they are taken care of for the next 3.8 years
There is no substitute for Starlink"
The fuck did he think militaries use before 2020?
Abandon fucking Starlink and use Eutelsat. Poland should also stop buying US made weapon systems.
Isn't it really frightening to let a super rich ketamine infused buffoon get this much power?
TBH I think any more low orbit telecom satellite arrays than we already have are just going to become a huge problem in the following decades.
Starlink is already being a problem currently, and it's not even fully deployed
Nationalize SpaceX and deport Musk to South Africa where he belongs.
(Ok maybe nationalize it under the next administration.... if there is a next one)
I was tricked by Musk into believing his lies before he started to endorse Trump 2.0. I feel stupid now. The sociopathic tendencies are undeniable.
I remember a comment on Reddit from someone claiming to belong to Musk's PR team that said they worked incredibly hard to cultivate his image. But they had just been fired as Musk was tired of being controlled, and kept from doing and saying crazy things. This person said the world would soon see just how much of a. all-around monster Musk really was. I didn't believe them at all at the time, Musk was a genius who was going to save humanity! It really makes me wonder about the actual person behind most of these figures and celebrities.
I don't like Putin, but he's a black belt judoka additionally trained in combat by the russian secret services.
He could fuck that misshapen walrus pool toy without even getting out of breath.
Putin is just as full of shit as Elon is.
Mofos couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag.
Isn’t OneWeb constellation is debated until Iris2 is available?
But we should reconsider the SpaceX launch contracts.
They’re both targeted towards commercial or government business, which is unfortunate from an individual subscriber perspective. I would love to see a euro competitor to Starlink and Kuiper, so I can unplug my Starlink.
Iris2 looks like a traditional Euro project with a dozen companies from different countries involved, to make sure the funding isn’t concentrated in one country. SpaceX has the advantage of improved integration in comparison.
blast every single one of them shits out the sky. it's an eye sore and he's the small man.
Eutelsat!!!
Starlink is just putting up cubesats with basic programming variations. The EU space agency can easily provide a competitive service that values freedom and democracy.
There are already alternatives. Use a mixture of them so they compete with each other for your business. https://www.wired.com/story/starlink-replacement-ukraine-eutelsat-oneweb-project-kuiper-amazon-iris2-elon-musk/
As soon as possible ban Starlink for security, spying risk.
So Hughes-Net & ViSat aren't a thing ? They're satellite internet companies probably based in Europe, but I could be wrong. (I probably butchered the names)
Also, how rich of Elon, a man whose existence is propped up by government funding to bark & bite the hands that feed them
The main European actor is called Eutelsat. They say they can provide a similar quality of service in Ukraine as Starlink. They have GEO sats and a LEO constellation of around 650 satellites.
There are alternatives to starlink though. This guy thinks he owns it all
Put them down like rabid dogs.
