Do you have any details about this? As an amateur astronomer I am concerned about increased number of objects in orbit and their eventual fate. How the quality of deorbiting system measured? Have they deorbited any yet and their success rate is higher than others?
Also I had no idea FCC approves satellite guidance systems, I thought they mostly supervise radio spectrum.

I’d be curious what your opinions are. https://pay.reddit.com/r/spacex/comments/fc9rqq/rspacex_discusses_march_2020_66/fl8rp8g/ https://pay.reddit.com/r/spacex/comments/fc9rqq/rspacex_disc...
