lol let him waste his money on an impossible technology
He doesn't waste his money on his companies. He wastes tax payer funding on them. And when that started drying up, he took it to the stock market, convinced the exchange to fast track adding his company to being eligible for indexes, and then wasted our 401ks on it. He's the ultimate con man.
Yes but that only lasted weeks before collapsing. The end is coming, he is now trying to roll Twitter into spacex. It’s where his real riches are. When it eventually goes, so does his money
That's what he does. When one company starts having issues, his other company will bail it out or outright buy it. It's a constant shell game.
I'm hoping for a push by the people to pressure the Democrats to defund Musk. All his tech is shit and hurts people.
With Trump, he got no-bids.
Unfortunately there are still a ton of people that think he is some genius engineer and visionary. I would love for him to get cut off, I just don't have high hopes for it. Ideally he is cut off and sent to prison or sent back to South Africa.
And kill us all by destroying the ozone layer again? No thank you.
I'm not sure what it has to do with the ozone, please explain.
One of the major environmental issues with launching mega-constellations is the environmental impact of their end-of-life deorbiting. As satellites reenter the atmosphere, they create aluminum oxide particulate that has a negative impact on the ozone layer.

Because, of course they do. We always have to find ways to destroy our beautiful planet, as if a new Earth-like planet is just a skip away.
Don't you worry your poor little mind...the same folks destroying everything for their wealth are working on magic space ships to get us to earth 2, environmental bugaloo.
Thanks
