AOC on Elon Musk:

"Starlink satellites are already kinda fallin' out of the sky. This is a rickey, rackety system, and he does not deserve these contracts. He has an enormous conflict of interest with these contracts. He's going in, cutting these contracts, and giving them to himself and acting like he's some kind of good guy. It's not the case."

Is she capable of understanding the benefits and drawbacks of LEO comms satellites vs GEO, or is it better to let her wallow in her ignorance?

AOC expert at nothing except how to mix drinks

Is there any proof of that? Maybe she had to steal tips because she couldn't earn any on her own. I've had bad bartenders.

Star Link satellites are in a very low orbit for low latency and so that as they fail they don’t stay up forever and burn up in the atmosphere.

You are correct. They are in an orbit designed to decay and burn up in the atmosphere as they reach the end of their useful life.

Hey AOC, Musk is not going to have a baby with you.
No use trying.

They regularly drought older satellites when their maneuvering fuel gets low. It’s a feature, not a bug.

“Can we sent her to Mars on first mission?”

We know that Musk wants to occupy Mars, but I’m pretty sure he would prefer higher standards than what AOC would offer.
