You may notice a strange edit at the 14:18 mark. That's because I had to remove a tiny section of video as a result of FC Barcelona claiming all the monetisation on this video, and I was forced to remove a tiny clip of Messi scoring his first goal.
@@asefjamilajwad Made worse by the fact I sent them multiple emails, which were all ignored. I wasn't emailing someone random. I emailed the exact person who claimed the revenue for the entire video because of a 10 second clip.
@@RealEngineering i really don't get copyright law. First off, the fact that they 'own' every footage of their player seems pretty weird to me. If i go watch a FCB match, film it with my camera, they get to claim all ownership of my video because it included one of their players? That would be like Boeing claiming all my monetization if their airplanes happen to be in my uploaded video's. Secondly, the fact that they can claim ALL monetization for a 10 sec clip of a video that's not even remotely about them or their assets, is insane. I would still understand if they get to claim a small % of monetization, but it's not like they're losing profits because one of their player gets promoted? On the contrary, you provided free marketing. It's really insane how easy it is to make claims

Yes Andrew; apparently the NASA representative spat on Elon Musk when he first proposed buying a rocket from them.
@@peterterrell1712 It was a Russian representative. (Some interview of an alleged Musk's friend on KZhead, or a colleague.) When he was trying to buy an ICBM which was out of use.

@@AquarianSoulTimeTraveler The AESA radar option would be very limited, probably only useful for detection of RF sources and large objects such as airliners or ICBMs. It would be more useful to just have a camera on each satellite.

**Telco companies exists** Elon Musk: "im about to end this man's whole career"
This network works best for servicing low-density areas of the world. Cities have too much customer density for starlink to serve them all at a reasonable bandwidth, though they would still provide the lowest latency. It will still offer some competition in these areas, but could only ever capture a small market share of the total bandwith usage. Expect Starlink to dominate mainly in rural areas, where customer density is lower, and the cost to connect new customers via fiber is high.
@@JosephHarner Not sure where this misinformation originates from, but its wrong. It uses phased arrays, so having lots of users in one area, is not an issue. And in terms of bandwidth, Starlink would be better off at handling insane amount of users and loads, than the current ground based systems, due to having multiple links to multiple other sats. The term you are looking for, is bandwidth congestion, and like i said, Starlink is most likely better off than ground based solutions in cities. Starlink will dominate more than just rural areas,because low latency applications are becoming more and more common, and if there is a cheaper faster solution, people will use it.

Nice I can play CSGO from Europe to my friends in Asia and Australia with less than 100 ms ping.
Living in Hawaii, I definitely look forward to reduced ping times.
yea the internet down here in Australia fucking sucks on ADSL2+ i barely got 0.8MB/s and the new NBN i get around 1.5MB/s in other words i went from 3 days to down load a game as big GTAV to 2 to download it and ping lol lucky to get around 100ms in country but to Europe its around 400 -500ms to Amsterdam at the moment makes games like Armored Warfare unplayable. to North America its around 270ms so games like WOT are playable well kinda WOT is so pay to win now it drives me nuts.
and the beautiful thing is how Starlink will work even for people in very rural or remote areas!
This will fucking destroy our aussie internet monopoly, with all our internet infrastructure majority owned by Telstra, and with Australia with a land mass rivaling USA but with a far lower population thus starlink would be perfect for disrupting our market and then delivering low ping high bandwidth broadband we've always wanted!
@@phalanx3803 same bro. I love it when people try to talk smack when I'm sitting with .5mps speeds and usually 80-120 ping.
0:47 that looks Satisfying
Its already being used by the us military in some training exercises. The ability to transmit information with such speed to troops and aircraft/equipment is invaluable.
lmfao, only elon musk would have the balls to straight up ask the government to launch almost 8 thousand satellites.
It's actually around 12,000...they already had permission for 4000+. Crazy cool!
@H M Haha I know what you mean. Fingers crossed!
@H M unless space x has lied about satelight design to both the US Government and the Public, the lasers aren't orientable at that degree, especially that the satelights are around a globe, it would be insanely difficult.
Which government? He should have asked all of them.
@@truantray Actually, he should not have needed to ask any government. But more to the point, he asked permission to launch, not to operate. The permission was for firing a massive rocket within that government's border, not for the array of satellites, themselves.
It has a secret function. He needs a worldwide parallel computing via [neural] network so that he can create a *catgirl army to mars*
we need the weebs worlwide to unite
Kumo Kirsclerg oh yea
Damn it Elon! This sounds like the start of skynet.
Either that or it can be used as a secret planetary defense system against asteroids.
shhh!!!
I can’t wait for the announcement when Starlink will go public. I need to save up my money now for this. This is a game changer.
It is already public.
@@MikeNapoli1989 No it's not. They only have 900 satellites in orbit of the 12,000 approved. They are only in the beta testing phase. I live in Texas and there is no beta testing ready in my area, so I am still waiting. It is not ready for an IPO. It won't be until they have at least 4,000 satellites up where they can provide service to most of America.
Really good work
My expectation for starlink is to provide us with global connectivity, decent speeds, actually getting what we pay for it, and hopefully putting 18th Century Link out of business...
BS
There is always a prototype phase to every successful system, and Starlink is already far more than proof-of-concept. In a surprisingly short interval, as SpaceX continues development, you may enjoy the capacity you hope to pay for. The most important issue is whether Starlink remains true to its charter (vaguely phrased), and does not allow Wall Street traffic and other premium users to crowd out the mass (individual) user. As we found with Google, glowing promises to do no evil are quickly forgotten when shareholders want more return. In fact, love of money instead of community/people is the root of all evil.
Bob Greene Broad Band is Destructive & Unnecessary!
Have you looked at how the hyperloop ended up? Now they're just digging completely normal car tunnels you drive through. No scifi-age techonology.
@@bobgreene2892 It's a good thing SpaceX is a private company and isn't subject to shareholders. It's already making good money from its reusable rockets and if this project nets them a big payday then it will likely stay as a private company for at least as long as Elon runs it. Though he could re-charter the company in such a way that any successors could be held to certain unchangeable mandates. Will just have to see how long that stays true.
Here after the Starlink release and SpaceX Dragon success Nov 2020 !! Absolute madlad
5:00 Normally you would compare waves with equal frequencies. So they should have the same number of peaks and troughs, and the one going through glass should have a 47% shorter wavelength.
Elon Musk said in an interview the purpose of Starlink is to fund Mars travel.
Connor Branach mind blown. I hope he means well. 👏
The video literally said that...
Yep, that's Musk's big goal and he's not wasting any time.
@@zacharycowart8380 Steve Jobs paid himself $1 for working at Apple. He got millions bc he was a shareholder. Stocks are worth a lot more than a wage.
Connor Branach oh gawd, where can i get a tckt- I’m done with these beings of earth!!🤬😤😖🤩
Krypton thrusters? Is Elon Musk really Lex Luthor? 🤔
I think Musk went for Krypton instead of Xenon because he's such a geek and couldn't resist.
I've been waiting to find out he's really bald for years now. But Bezos is definitely Cobra Commander *Edit* I meant to say Destro, but you get the point
Lex Luthor is an earthling. Kal-El also known as Clark Kent/Superman was from Krypton
@@japatel88
jeff bezos lex luthor, Elon iron man
When real life is better than fiction.
Not better but stranger.
Wonderful data supporting your thoughts.
As I'm watching I'm realizing he's mentioning new tech over new tech over new tech and I realize this required a huge team to put together. Good job
If Elon Musk isn't using Starlink in his secret plan to take over the world I'm going to be disappointed
I lowkey think that the codename for this project is SkyNet, and elon is actually a cyborg lol
You know, i wouldn't even be mad if Elon Musk would take over the world. At least he prefers scientific progress
Better him than Zuckerberg...
I’m completely fine with Elon taking over the world
😂😂 great point
I ordered the 3 motor cybertruck & plan to buy the S dual motor too..I have enough solar & battery back up system to charge them both. I love Space X too.. to the moon & MARS WE GO000ooo!!
Great explanation
Elon about to put every internet provider out of business.
sounds really crazy to me 😂. By just imagining how a single person can be so much powerful.
*every human....
sed8me, what do you mean?
Do the maths as a reactive circuit. Let alone just what it is in its fundamental elements.
No Cable, I’m fine with that, cable uses satellites as well !
