R to @rschmied: Big difference between peace comms vs warfront comms.
Starlink is only comms system still working at warfront – others all dead.

Even so, Starlink may still die.

R to @elonmusk: Russia has the ability to destroy USA & Europe utterly with nuclear missiles in less than 30 minutes & vice versa.
A surprising number of people don’t know this.
Of course, it would be MAD to use them, but it is also MAD to be in this situation at all.

R to @elonmusk: Would be great if someday humanity stopped pointing nukes at itself that would destroy almost all life on Earth.

R to @ashleevance: The amount SpaceX is requesting for a major battlefield advantage is less than the cost of one new GPS satellite. Ironically, GPS doesn’t work on battlefields, as the signal is easy to jam, but Starlink does.
