Musk has said there's a risk of bankruptcy if both Starlink 2 and Starship don't work. > The consequences for SpaceX if we can’t get enough reliable Raptors made is that we then can’t fly Starship, which means we then can’t fly Starlink Satellite V2 (Falcon has neither the volume nor the mass to orbit needed for satellite V2). Satellite V1 by itself is financially weak, whereas V2 is strong. I very much hope they both do work but let's be clear there's still a lot of risk to get through before that's clear. https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/30/22809720/elon-musk-space... |
