As much as I despise Musk for so many things, and as much as his Starlink satellites are ruining astronomy and creating vast space-junk hazards, he's only partly to blame.
The absolute refusal of government to see what was happening, and stop it before it was too late, is the bigger problem.
And that continued refusal to lift a finger is encouraging orders of magnitude more satellite launches by Musk and other space grabbers.
It's insane, and we will regret it, probably too late.

#PPOD: This stunning photograph captures the most violent moment during an eruption of the Calbuco volcano in Chile. Volcanic lightning occurs in the plumes of eruptions when volcanic ash particles collide, generating static electricity. Additionally, water vapor in the plume condenses and freezes as it rises, adding ice to the mix. And voila! The eventual electrical discharge causes lightning.
