Those speeds sure better be scalable. 100MB/s seems like a lot now but 10 years from now won’t be enough and then what will become of the constellation?

The constellation will need ongoing updates anyway. Right now they’re just trying to achieve “better than nothing”; next is laser-routing data between satellites, with more upgrades to come. This isn’t a one shot system.

Elon will go up there in his Space Tesla and upgrade them to 100 gbps.
