>Russia just sent one up that had an undisclosed payload too, that Marfoogle is thinking an EMP that took out our satellites
Anon wonder if "our satellites" includes Elon's? Saw that he's "putting some out of commission for unknown safety reasons" - did they get zapped, instead, and he's giving a cover story?
Had to go back a few breads; was in #25041:

SpaceX plans to remove from orbit about 100 of its older Starlink satellites because of a design flaw that could cause them to fail.
In a statement Feb. 12, SpaceX said it would perform controlled descents of about 100 “early-version 1” Starlink satellites out of concerns that the spacecraft could fail in orbit and no longer be maneuver.
“These satellites are currently maneuverable and serving users effectively, but the Starlink team identified a common issue in this small population of satellites that could increase the probability of failure in the future,” SpaceX stated. The company did not elaborate on that issue or identify the specific satellites affected.
