Like Starlink, China’s Qianfan satellites have an easy-to-pack flat-panel design.

      You dont understand, it is vitally important to our petty geopolitics that everyone has their own satellites, who gives a shit about long term habitability when there are short term power plays and profits to be made

        Doing research before sending tens of thousand of them is for crybabies anyway. /s
