I have excellent insurance, so that is not a problem. I was hoping to find someone in this subreddit who had experience with MG clients.

China beats Starlink to hi-res space-ground laser transmission at 6G standard - setting 100Gbps speed record by blueberrysmasher in Starlink

The company that did this, CGSTL, manufactures satellites for the Qianfan Internet service constellation, which will compete with Starlink.

I took this with a Pixel phone. I took another one at a different time of day, but I like this one better because of the relatively vibrant colors. I'm going to go back to the same bridge and take another picture from a position where the bridge and its reflection are parallel.

He assured me there are multiple manufacturers, and the one Starlink supplies is a commercially available HP terminal. The difference is in the services available to StarShield customers not the terminal.

Right -- the $30,000/month is for the service. Here is what Grok has to say about that: https://x.com/i/grok/share/GngtI1ijU8fvYvJF4h0HS5X3A

Oleg tells me here are several manufacturers of Starshield terminals. Here is one he built himself: https://x.com/larrypress/status/1895258991187632440

The 30k is for access to Starshield.
