It ends with: "I turned 50 years old yesterday. In those five decades, we have gone from flying a fully expendable Saturn V rocket to the beginnings of a fully reusable Starship rocket. Much remains to be done, and Starship is a work in progress. But this is historic. No one really knows what our planet, our orbit, or our Solar System will look like with low-cost launch, frequent access to space, and essentially no constraints on mass. We have never experienced anything like that before. This is a far more wonderful and wild time in space than any that came before. There is incredible opportunity and peril. The future is unknowable but tantalizing. So I no longer have any regrets about missing Apollo. I am thrilled to be alive at this very moment in human history." -- AMA March 31: https://www.broadband.io/c/broadband-grant-events/dave-taht Dave Täht CEO, TekLibre, LLC _______________________________________________ Starlink mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/starlink
