It’s designed to go to Mars. It boggles the mind that anyone would invest in a company and just ignore and/or disbelieve the reason the company was created. Either they’re just gambling or they’re delusional when they discuss so called fundamentals.

Going to Mars is absolutely insane value proposition for public company. There is no monetary gain from it. You have some political gain. But even that is one bad administration away from crashing for multiple years...

So, you don’t invest in it. And then you don’t need to bother discussing the financial viability of Starlink or anything else.

It’s like there’s a planet sized elephant in the room that everyone is avoiding looking at.
