Starship will be deploying the next gen v3 satellites, which weigh about 2 tons each. A single Starship launch with 60 of these deploys more capacity than 20 launches of a Falcon 9.
- geerlingguy 1y agoIIRC the v3 sats can do like 1 Tbps of bandwidth thanks to a larger antenna system?
- xeromal 1y agoWow, that really puts it into perspective
- Pedro_Ribeiro 1y agoThe figures they've been talking of the ideal cost per launch of starship are even more insane. I'm sure some of it is hype farming on Twitter but if they get the cost to less then $1000/kg it would be incredible.
