This is MASSIVE! Huge congratsReplying to @jamesdrou and @StarlinkEach V3 satellite delivers ~10× the downlink capacity of a V2 (or V2 Mini), so these 26 V3s are equivalent to about 260 V2 satellites.
Starship Flight 14 launched 26 Starlink V3 satellites into orbit. This is the first operational deployment of the V3 generation. Each satellite delivers 1 Tbps of downlink capacity — about 10× a V2 satellite — and 160 Gbps of uplink, roughly 22× the previous generation. This00:00
He called it five years ago. “Starship will never make it into orbit.” Today, @SpaceX proved that prediction wrong. 🚀 A brutal reminder: never underestimate what five years of engineering can change.
