"Connecting the unconnected affordably is a $1 trillion opportunity" for $VSAT, but "the big challenge is delivering good service at price points that are attractive."
@Eutelsat_SA@euroconsultEC@SES_Satellites@steviecSES@ViasatInc@SpaceX Berneke talks about overcoming satellite supply chain delays, and Shotwell adds: "I can tell you it's such a relief to have me not being the one that's causing delays right now," because "the rockets are always late."
@Eutelsat_SA@euroconsultEC@SES_Satellites@steviecSES@ViasatInc@SpaceX Shotwell: One of the more fascinating parts of the Starlink business is setting up service in a new country. SpaceX has "been quite pleased" with the adoption of "Starlink in countries that we thought would take a really long time."

Former NASA Administrator @JimBridenstine is giving a welcome address for day two of #SATShow:
@JimBridenstine Bridenstine, who's on the boards of Viasat and Aerospace Corp as well as an advisor to Voyager Space, says "the thing I hear in every board meeting I'm in ... is the issue of space debris."
@JimBridenstine Bridenstine: "I want to be clear: I am not talking about any particular company. I'm talking about all of us. Because [space debris] affects everyone in this room."

-Virgin Orbit CSO Jim Simpson $VORB
-Astra CBO Martin Attiq $ASTR
@SATELLITEDC@SpaceflightInc@relativityspace@Firefly_Space@VirginOrbit@Astra Attiq: $ASTR's automated approach to production is already showing results, as the company has gone from building one rocket "every 6 to 8 months" to currently "building 1 a month, and next year our goal is to build one a week."
@SATELLITEDC@SpaceX@ViasatInc@Telesat@OneWeb Hofeller: "Getting the cost of the user terminal down is key to being prolific," as SpaceX has cut its Starlink terminal costs "down by two-thirds from the original version."
