Geomagnetic storm causes SpaceX's newest fleet of satellites to tumble out of orbit, burn up
https://abc13.com/spacex-starlink-satel ... /11548537/

February 9, 2022

Up to 40 of the 49 small satellites launched last week have either reentered the atmosphere and burned up, or are on the verge of doing so, the company said in an online update Tuesday night.

SpaceX said a geomagnetic storm last Friday made the atmosphere denser, which increased the drag on the Starlink satellites, effectively dooming them....

SpaceX still has close to 2,000 Starlink satellites orbiting Earth and providing internet service to remote corners of the world. They circle the globe more than 340 miles up (550 kilometers).... Each satellite weighs less than 575 pounds (260 kilograms).

They don't even like his electric cars. Greenies think we shouldn't have cars either and take public transportation.

I have seen the model you mentioned in my two visits to Europe (Amsterdam and souther Germany - both business trips). Everyone but the elite wealthy ride bicycles (rain, snow, heat, cold). The elite wealthy drive big BMWs and big Audis that they use to blow the doors off of the lowly rental cars that us peasants from the US are driving on the autobahn. The plus too that is all those bicycle riders are very fit (ladies have great looking legs - my sexist comment for the month ).

Elon Musk and Space X sued by department of justice for refusing to hire illegals.

Upside down world again.

You need to prove your identity and work-authorized immigration status.

To prove your identity and work-authorized immigration status, show us your current U.S. immigration documents and your unexpired foreign passport. Acceptable immigration documents include your:

• Form I-551 (Lawful Permanent Resident Card, Machine-Readable Immigrant Visa).
• Form I-94 (Arrival/Departure Record).
• Form I-766 (Employment Authorization Document/EAD).
• Admission stamp showing a class of admission permitting work.

In their binding agreements with contractors, NASA typically includes a boatload of "Clauses Incorporated by Reference" from the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR; https://www.acquisition.gov/far/. One of those is always Number 52.222-54, Employment Eligibility Verification. This mandates the use of the federal E-Verify system, and E-Verify requires a Social Security Number, and requires a suitable form of personal identification, like a driver's license, a state or federal ID card that includes a photo, or a U.S. military card or service record.
So I guess the line the DOJ is drawing is that SpaceX set the bar at a green card? Because, correct me if I'm wrong, noncitizens are only eligible for a Social Security card if they are specifically authorized to work in the U.S. by the Department of Homeland Security: https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10096.pdf.

How many undocumented border-crossing quote/unquote refugees and asylum seekers can get Social Security cards?

Elon Musk asked Zelenskyy about a jailed and tortured American citizen and journalist being held by Ukraine, if he is still alive.

Apparently said something counter to Ukraine’s official position about a massacre.

Tucker Carlson talked about this guy and sending Ukraine 100 billion dollars while they are holding him.

Seems Elon is doing a better job than Brandon.

That average is up by nearly 10 years from March 2022, one month after the war began, when the average age of a Ukrainian soldier was between 30 and 35 years old

Ukraine does not release the number of deaths or injuries among its troops, but Western officials said in August the war's total casualty (killed and injured) toll was nearing 500,000.
