Malcolm DavisGUEST
... to acquire and they, that they were deployed and stayed up for 30 years.
Malcolm DavisGUEST
Uh, to, we, we're moving away from that to, as you say, these very, uh, diverse and dis- uh, dispersed satellite mega constellations, uh, where you have large numbers of small satellites and, and Elon Musk's Starlink is a classic example-
Swasti RaoHOST
Yeah
Malcolm DavisGUEST
... that these-
7 MINS LATER
Swasti RaoHOST
And in fact, one of the key things that I've been focusing on lately is that we need to understand the Pakistan-China collusion, because of course there's a Russia-China collusion, but there's a very, very strong Pakistan-China collusion, uh, when it comes to space-based activities as well, and that is a cause of worry for India.
Swasti RaoHOST
So thanks for putting that in perspective.
Swasti RaoHOST
And, you know, I have to ask you this, this question because you've been mentioning Elon Musk, and today you cannot really talk about, uh, space if you're not talking about SpaceX and Starlink and all that.
Swasti RaoHOST
So, uh, the question that sort of comes to my mind is that, uh, unlike previous military domains, of course, uh, or which were extremely state-centered, there is an enormous amount of infrastructure now in space that belongs to private companies.
Jack SpirkoHOST
They're perfect for alternative energy production because they make a place that wasn't livable livable.
Jack SpirkoHOST
We now have internet anywhere thanks to Starlink on top of that, okay? Um, we also have the ability to use grazing systems in land that really does not work well for corn s- corn, soybeans, and potatoes.
Jack SpirkoHOST
And there's always the opportunity for some level of vegetative agriculture anywhere with the techniques that we know that can be done on a small scale.
Jack SpirkoHOST
So I think we have everything we need We just need to figure out who, when, where, and the exact how.
ZacHOST
So if everything goes as planned, Starship will circle the Earth about six times at an altitude of about 275 kilometers for about 10 hours before de-orbiting in the Pacific, this time west of Chile.
JesseHOST
Starship will also insert 26 version three Starlink satellites into orbit.
ZacHOST
And there will be no tower catches this time, but it is exciting that we're actually getting full orbit and full release of satellites that are actually gonna make the Starlink network a lot better.
JesseHOST
Do you think that they're going to splash it down successfully like they did last time?
ZacHOST
Probably.
ZacHOST
Yeah, they basically said that if there had been a tower there in the Indian Ocean, it would've been caught.
ZacHOST
Probably right after that we're gonna try for a tower catch.
ZacHOST
Starlink posted, "The next generation Starlink V5 has a smaller form factor and lightweight design with greater power efficiency.
Sean CruzenHOST
But also, if you just want to send heavy payloads to space for a much lower price, you might also be rooting for a success of the Starship vehicle.
Sean CruzenHOST
You know who one of the customers is for that vehicle? Oh, it's SpaceX themselves because they're putting up their own Starlink cluster, and on this next flight that's scheduled to launch next week, they're gonna be launching a brand-new version of the Starlink satellite.
Sean CruzenHOST
It's version three.
Sean CruzenHOST
What is version three? Well, it's better than version two, which was better than version one.
Wes CarrollHOST
That's true.
Sean CruzenHOST
I have not placed eyes on that yet.
Sean CruzenHOST
Anyway, so, so Starlink version three, it's faster.
Sean CruzenHOST
It's better connectivity.
Emma MartinHOST
Thank you.
Hayley SimmondsHOST
I was, I was thinking about watching the semifinals from an airplane because I'll have Starlink Wi-Fi on Qatar Airways.
Hayley SimmondsHOST
Anyway, never mind.
Hayley SimmondsHOST
Um, well, from all of us here, Matt said good luck, but I think that's echoed by me and Emma, and we're really excited to see you as part of that GB team, uh, compete in those semifinals in a little over three weeks now.
WazGUEST
You know what I mean? It's just like if we like it, we'll use it.
WazGUEST
We just had a Starlink company offer us a battery for the Starlink.
PeteHOST
Oh, okay.
PeteHOST
Fuck, I wonder if it's the same one.
WazGUEST
I don't know.
WazGUEST
I'll check with Emma.
WazGUEST
But I said- that would be handy as hell because I've been putting the Starlink out on the long cable and it's a real pain in my ass.
PeteHOST
Sitting on the bonnet.
Steve SummersHOST
Entering a revolutionary new era of space-based telecommunications as it targets September 22nd, just a few days away, for Starship's historic first orbital flight test, which will be Flight 14.
Steve SummersHOST
Pending regulatory approval, this mission kicks off the long-awaited deployment of what will be Starlink...
Steve SummersHOST
V3 satellites.
Steve SummersHOST
They're too big for the Falcon 9.
Joe GriffinGUEST
I think that everyone's got to draw a line with technology at some point.
Joe GriffinGUEST
And like even the year that I did the sheep hunt in the Alaska range, there was no Starlink up there.
Joe GriffinGUEST
So I couldn't send a picture for 10 days.
Joe GriffinGUEST
And when we did this grizzly hunt, we had Starlink in the cabin.
Joe GriffinGUEST
And not that it wasn't nice to be able to like FaceTime and send pictures back home and talk and stuff like that and check emails, but it completely changed that experience.
Joe GriffinGUEST
Like I think I could really do it without this being in camp going forward.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And I have to tell you, Elon Musk, I called up, I said, they all want Starlink.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Elon, you couldn't get it.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And I said, you got to do me a favor.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Send me Starlink.
Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And he sent hundreds of phones over Starlink.
Pete KalinerHOST
Right.
Pete KalinerHOST
So Trump goes on to say it was the worst management of a storm by a governor.
Hal KempferGUEST
Well, Jesse, we're dependent on that.
Hal KempferGUEST
I mean, from reconnaissance, surveillance, communications, you know, Starlink has become ubiquitous.
Hal KempferGUEST
I mean, we have all this stuff, all the weather reporting.
Hal KempferGUEST
It's all satellite stuff.
