Starlink . I don't know how I feel about hundreds of those things up there all the time no matter where I look. Welcome to the Jetsons/Blade Runner world, I guess.
I saw a dozen or so in the early morning sky in SoCal a couple of weeks ago. I knew they were visible right after launch, but didn't realize just how visible they can be any time, given the right conditions.
I understand how peeved astronomers are about that, but wireless high speed internet access anywhere in the world is a pretty damn cool deal.
Apparently they'll get high enough that we won't be able to see them but people with telescopes will. I agree about the connectivity being pretty neat.
elon has equipped the new sats with a shade to make them "invisible"
eventually the starlink speed is supposed to be ridiculous

No-go / abort.
19 hours to docking so I think they're testing onboard systems...
