Can this be upgraded in future versions of the sats? Is it a major undertaking requiring new ground station hardware, or something relatively easy that will increase with each "new" version of the sats?
- robszumski 6y agoI imagine they will scale up the sats to have more beams, better tech, etc. They have a super heavy lift rocket coming online in the years between now and the current batch of sats being retired. What they will be replaced with will likely look nothing like today's model.
