LEO is incredibly saturated.c if you build a data center there at the size needed you deal with space debris. MEO is about 500-1000ms latency in a good scenario (blanked coverage), that’s not snappy.

  > MEO is about 500-1000ms latency in a good scenario (blanked coverage), that’s not snappy. Just spitballing here: To the Moon it's about 1.5 seconds, and back the same OFC. That's 3000ms. MEO is way below GEO, which is still way below Moon <-> Earth. How's that going to be 500 to 1000ms?! Edit: I dealt with space debris by pointing to Planetes, the Manga/Anime. This is the way ;-> Edit of the edit: Or if that is too comical for you, the first 10 to 20 minutes of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey , basically the trip from Earth to the Moon, with a layover on that spinning space station.

    Are we seriously using a Manga and a sci-fi movie from the 60s as a source? On the note of basing ideas on pure fiction, how far along are the hyper loop and starship earth-to-earth? The later even made it into the IPO filing of this very serious company...

      One needs to have vision. Even if it's met with derision. I'm under the influence of the monolith. Drumming the femur at speed. Ouk! Ouk!
