There was nothing mistaken about what this CEO did. She knew exactly what she was doing.

- howard941 8y agoShe's quoted as relying on some understanding that others received permission retroactively. Not mentioned in the article is whether others have in fact received retroactive permission, whether it was post-denial, and whether the launcher ignored the FCC's reasonable concern, launched anyway, and still received permission.
- chris_wot 8y agoAnd? She was told by the FCC that they were very concerned about the hazardous nature of the satellites. I'm sorry, but it costs an enormous amount to launch a satellite, you have to be somewhat worried if this organization couldn't even address the issues raised by the FCC before they launched!
- howard941 8y agoAnd nothing. She shouldn't have launched without resolving the issue raised by the commission. You're either misreading my comment or my comment was unclear. I'm assuming the problem was my lack of clarity.
- chris_wot 8y agoI apologise, I think I must have misinterpreted what you were saying :-) the fault is on my end, not yours!
- howard941 8y agoMy bad for leaving any ambiguity at all - especially because I agree completely with your position but failed to make it clear. I apologize. You're gracious for following up and I appreciate it.
