Oh good, another Starlink launch. Because what better way to spend a Sunday morning than watching Elon Musk’s orbital vending machine fling another handful of internet routers into the sky. At 11:19 UTC, if you must know, a Falcon 9 will belch its way out of Cape Canaveral, launching yet another indistinguishable herd of Starlink satellites under the banner of “Group 10-14”, which sounds less like a marvel of aerospace engineering and more like a forgotten train schedule.
And of course, SpaceX will livestream it with the usual gravitas: dramatic synth music, a giddy commentator reading pre-approved bullet points, and obligatory slow-motion booster landing footage to remind us that this is about vision. A vision where every square meter of Earth is drenched in Ku-band goodness whether we asked for it or not.
