1 million AI satellites
What a constellation ~90× today’s Starlink would look like.
SpaceX
Launch footage and the numbers that belong in the first line. Upcoming Falcon and Starship dates sit on the Musk-world calendar.
Tracker
Every flight so far — date, what it tested, whether it worked — plus a countdown to Flight 15.
Calendar
Falcon dates refresh from Launch Library. Starship Flight 15 is still a planning target. Same list as Tesla earnings and the Fed.
A predicted 9,000-meter gap shrank to about 60 after another satellite burned without warning. Stargaze, Starlink’s own sensor network, is why we even have the story.
First upper stage to fly and return in one piece. Port of Brownsville, 75 days later.
Dragon Freedom undocked with four astronauts after two extra months on station.
FCC yes. 326 to 335 km. Below the ISS. No dish required.
What a constellation ~90× today’s Starlink would look like.
Every Ship so far ended in the ocean — the catch is still ahead.
Long-haul fleet Wi-Fi free for Flying Blue from mid-2027.
Starmind
SpaceX showed what a million AI satellites around Earth would look like. Starlink is about 11,000 today. Starmind would be roughly 90 times that. Michael Nicolls said in Antalya that the satellites will not work alone — they fly in clusters.
I posted the globe graphic because that is the only way the scale lands. A million is a word until you see the ring.
Catch
Every Starship upper stage so far has ended in the ocean. Morgan Stanley now says the first catch could be the biggest catalyst for SpaceX stock since the IPO. Adam Jonas kept a $300 target in a note called “Cheap and Getting Cheaper.”
I am a Tesla shareholder, not a SpaceX banker. I posted it because the sentence is the story: the holy grail is not another splashdown. It is a catch.
Florida
SpaceX wants a 32.4-mile, 16-inch natural gas line across Brevard County. A subsidiary called Coastal Connect Services would own it, tapping Florida Gas Transmission. They have booked the capacity for Starship, not for turbines on the grid.
On the ground
Someone on a United flight streamed five live college games at once — three seatbacks, a laptop, a tablet, the whole exit row — on free Starlink. United says 880+ planes by year end, then the fleet. Kazakhstan switched on direct-to-phone Starlink the same week, free for Beeline customers for now. The UK has had it since February. O2 wants £3 a month.
