Is Elon Musk really aiming for his own town? The discussion centers on Musk's ambitions to establish Starbase in Texas, pushing against traditional boundaries of influence. Over four years, his plans evolved from renaming wetlands to creating a town as SpaceX expands. With an upcoming election favoring him, the situation raises questions about democracy in the modern era. Discover the full story in this insightful article by The New York Times.

The Orbital Index · Issue No. 315Today’s issue will be a little shorter than usual because Ben and Andrew are both in SF this week for SF Climate Week, talking about deeptech, space, and climate. If you’re around, feel free to reach out!

The best thing Musk could to for Tesla, Starlink, and SpaceX right now would be to publicly step right away from those companies.

This would let Tesla executives shutter the Cybertruck and FSD for good and concentrate on what the Tesla cars originally offered—an EV with useful tech and clean driving.

It would let SpaceX concentrate on improving on what works, instead of chasing the fever dream that is Starship—a spacecraft that will never safely land on an unprepared site.

It would stop his capriciousness from interfering with Starlink access, ensuring customers confidence that their access won't suddenly be cut off simply because his undies got twisted.

Let him sit back, gather the profits, and play in his personal sandpit.

Hell, he might even create something new and useful. Or, you know, not.

“Controlled deorbiting of the Falcon 9 second-stage over Arizona generated spectacular disturbances in the ionospheric plasma measured in total electron content ... Conical and concentric signatures, as well as electron depletion, are consistent with radiation of acoustic waves during Falcon 9 deorbit and/or potential release of constituents."
