Those starlink missions are a lot of fun. And regular as clockwork.

Who is paying for all this?

Early Saturday evening, SpaceX hopes to embark on its 28th Starlink mission, sending another cluster of 60 broadband internet network satellites into orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket.

Um, 52 satellites, not 60. The journalist did not do proper research.

SpaceX / Starlink is causing the internet companies to boost their speed for a lower price. For $60 I now have 467mbs for the next 36 months from Spectrum. I wanted 200mbs for that price but after being told it would happen in about 1.5/hrs and it did not so when I called the next day (mothers day) the retention guy for the same price doubled that speed : )

I also have a ATT fiber optic line on the telephone. Competition works!
