Feed died.
I hope the next-gen of communications satellites improves the broadband-over-satellite situation.
If only there was a company in this day and age that is launching satellites often and at lower cost. :)
- bisby 10y agoApparently the broadband out there is great. The issue isn't lack of satellites or speed. The issue is that when you have a Merlin 1D (or 3) firing directly at a mobile platform, it's going to shake violently. And when you have sensitive equipment on that platform shaking, you're going to have a satellite misalignment and signal cut outs while the lock is reacquired. Considering this is a pretty unique scenario (I would imagine 99% of satellite internet connections don't have rockets landing on them), I doubt it's a high priority to resolve somehow.
