I aked about IPO cost, minimum investment. Then I asked about earnings. And I said:

and honestly, the numbers weren't my main concern, that Musk would do to them what he did to Tesla, run it into the ground by trying to push pet projects that exceeded the limits of todays technology....or which were just plain weird.

Even Star Link is running into trouble as some satellite orbit are decaying with no apparent plans for maintenance. Looks like the military's de-pendence on the system might be misplaced and short lived.
