SpaceX just doesn't stop! Tomorrow they will launch another 47 Starlink satellites to LEO on their 9th mission of 2022! This will increase the total number of Starlinks launched to 2,234; 2,017 will be in orbit post launch!! Prelaunch Preview by @124970MeV https://everydayastronaut.com/starlink-group

#7 This is an interesting one. How would Russia meaningfully threaten Starlink operations?
