I guess the Falcon 9's must really actually be grounded, because Jonathan McDowell's Starlink count hasn't gone up in the last 4 days since my last talk! (It's actually gone down slightly due to reentries).

There are now "only" 9,631 Starlinks in orbit. (Sigh.)

SpaceX has put in a kinda-sorta-application to the FCC for an orbital data center constellation with a MILLION satellites. However, the description is rather vague without the usual specifics of the orbital parameters of each shell. fccprod.servicenowservices.com/icfs?id=ibfs...
