what does it mean for starlink's deployment and other programs?ow joins us with the latest. talk to us about what spacex is trying to achieve with starling -- starlink. read: -- ed this is a : constellation of satellites that allow you to have internet connection even in the most remote parts of the world. they hit a number just shy of 1600, their initial target for satellites as close to earth as they could possibly be under the guidelines. that distance allows really low latency, amazing connection, where you can use that internet connection to stream video games, movies. this is not designed for san francisco. we are talking the middle of africa or asia, where there are no land lines. it is limited to north america and canada, in beta testing mode. emily: tell us about the relationship between starlink and musk's goal to get to mars? ed: money and practice. the rocket launch business tops out at about $3 billion of revenue each year. starlink could get as much as $30 billion each year. his central goal is interplanetary travel. he does not care
