... is gonna get on my ****ing nerves. While I realize these are not the first low orbit satellites it seems that these are extremely bright and form a chain which are extremely eye catching and, IMO, take away from the night's sky.

I took this photo about 2 hours ago.

I thought they put some sort of non reflective stuff on the newer launches due to complaints. Seen this photo many times from others as well.

It's a work in progress.

Consider all the current satellites as beta. They still aren't doing laser communications between satellites. I expect this is an issue they'll be working on through 2021.

I only see 2 in your photo. The 1st set of 60 (?) were all in a line but they were supposed to spread out.
As a side note, has anyone tried them out? I'm on satellite here and my current provider is slow and expensive.

I think you are looking at the bottom right or perhaps the far left? Look in the dead center... 8 dots.

Asian companies are working on low earth orbit displays, like advertising and "meteor showers" for special occasions. Great.

He invented "the train but worse" and a bunch of rubes still think he's this brilliant Ideas Man.

Pathetic!!!

I'm not sure "immature" is the right word for it. He says plenty of immature things, sure, but they're mostly things that a majority of CPers would find at least mildly amusing. The difference is just that he has a worldwide platform that he speaks from, so he has a ton of visibility. Combine that with being worth so much money that he doesn't give a **** about what anyone thinks, and you get his "immature" persona.

But...c'mon. Selling "short shorts" for $69.420 as a way of rubbing it in the face of his detractors is kind of hilarious.



I suppose that his sleep-deprived antics where he has directly attacked people on Twitter can be seen as a sign of immaturity. I'd just call it dumbassery, but I could be convinced otherwise.
