Lex Mercatoria

1 month ago

America has been a corporation since well before the Act, to wit:

 

“The United States of America are a corporation with the capacity to sue and be sued, to convey and receive property. 1 Marsh. Dec. 177, 181.” United States of America, para. 5, Bouvier’s Law Dictionary (6th rev. ed. 1856).

 

“[A]ll governments are corporations, created by usage and common consent, or grants and charters which create a body politic for prescribed purposes . . . .” Charles River Bridge v. Warren Bridge, 36 U.S. (11 Pet.) 420 (1837), reprinted in WESTLAW, 1837 WL 3561, with the following notation at 160 of the computer version: “West Editorial Note: the source of the following opinion is Baldwin’s Constitutional Views, p. 134–169.” The above cited quote appears at 161. (Justice Baldwin’s concurring opinion in this case apparently was not printed in either the Peters Reports of this Court’s decision or subsequently in the U.S. Reports.)

What is Starlink?

Starlink is SpaceX’s internet communication satellite constellation. The Low-Earth orbit constellation will deliver fast, low-latency internet service to locations where ground-based internet is unreliable, unavailable, or expensive. The first phase of the constellation consists of 5 orbital shells.

 

Starlink is currently in the “Better Than Nothing Beta,” allowing anyone in approved regions to order or preorder. However, for now, only higher latitudes are fully covered, so people of lower latitudes are currently only able to pre-order Starlink. After 24 launches SpaceX will achieve global coverage, but the constellation will not be complete until ~42,000 satellites are in orbit. Given SpaceX’s current Starlink production and launch rate, Starlink will have global coverage, excluding the poles, by the middle of 2021.

 

Once Starlink is complete, the venture is expected to profit $30-50 billion annually. This profit will largely finance SpaceX’s ambitious Starship program, as well as Mars Base Alpha.
