Just watched it, SpaceX is on a aggressive Starlink schedule in 2022, do you know approximately how many satellites they have up there including this launch. It has to be approaching 2000

I am waiting on 2 things. One is the Tesla split vote in June and second is the announcement someday of the Starlink IPO.

Last time Telsa announced a stock split in August 2020, the stock doubled in 3 weeks then split 5-1 then nearly doubled in price later in 2021. Elon Musk says he has to launch more satellites and make money with Starlink before the IPO happens.
