NASA has 20+ satellites in orbit sending PETABYTES of data. Without highly trained staff, that data falls on the floor and isn’t recoverable. And just in case — no, AI isn’t the answer.

And there are potential benefits for Elon Musk. Privatization of more satellite work. The Traffic Coordination System for Space (basically air traffic control for space) shifted over to private sector.

Trump White House budget proposal eviscerates science funding at NASA “This would decimate American leadership in space.”…

But the big question is _Whose_ satellites are they being paid to launch? 🤔
