@sundogplanets At first glance - for a second or two - I thought the FCC's "Weird Space Stuff" was bureaucratese for FBRs (Fast Radio Bursts).

It reminded me of the time someone supposedly wrote a humorous article about the neutrino bomb. Alas, a senator got wind of it and supposedly held up the NFS budget to find out who was holding out. This led to the interesting task of explaining to the senator that he'd been had without saying that he'd been had.

@sundogplanets based on the choice of vocabulary alone it sounds like it was written by Musk/one of his SpaceX fanboy? The first line starts "In the geopolitical race to commercialize and dominate the Final Frontier" (capitalization sic), by the second sentence it talks about "the province of science fiction" 😂😆

@sundogplanets @lisamelton Brendan Carr is a dummy.

And now I need to answer a journalist's last minute questions about atmospheric pollution from satellites (which will mostly be me saying "actually nobody knows how this works or what will happen!")

And then I can go to bed.
