    The fact that they’ve been launching satellites for months? Here’s a Starlink satellite that launched last week I guess. You can search for Starlink in the catalog there and see tons of others in orbit as well from launches just over the past few weeks.Wikipedia also graphs all the Falcon 9 launch outcomes and it looks like they haven’t had a failure to deploy a satellite to orbit since 2016?

    Can you back up the claim that these satellites are failing before they’ve even been turned on? That seems like something that would be covered pretty extensively.

      I’m not contesting the rocket launches. The whole point is that the normal activation time is 3 days. It was the nearly the same for all of the versions. The V2 had the largest with 5 day activation time. The activation time on these is 90 days+. My point is he’s trying to raise money to cover for the fact his activation time is now 90+ days.
