Yeah, main reason was the update on the number of Starlink satellites now in orbit.

If and when the Starship gets into launching Starlink they’ll be adding a couple of thousand every month….

And, of course, that they’ve stopped building them, as they see them as obsolete tech and can just keep refurbishing and launching the current fleet of abiut 20 until Starship comes on line.

What any other company or country in the world would pay to take over the production line and technology….
