If you are in NE MS go outside and look in sky

Those are starlink satellites that haven't spread out yet. They launch 30 at a time. Latest launch was 12/17
dang, that was some weird stuff. i went outside to do my usual first thing in the morning business and looked up and it startled me. Ran inside and got my phone to video. They got behind some trees but I still got decent video of them.
It's pretty incredible stuff. They've got over 10k in orbit currently. Our cell phones will be using them for signal in the next few years. The future is coming fast.

I love Mississippi. Seriously
so many things ran through my head, Elon Musk's satellites wasn't one of them.
Ain't nothin like it, Mississippi or doing your business outside!
That is awesome, thanks for sharing. I'm going out in the morning and watch them.Starlink satellites. There is a website dedicated to when you can see them pass again.

I was sitting on a deer stand last year one morning before sunup and looked straight up. I focused on a spot and saw a few faint stars. One of them started moving in a straight line, so I thought it was a satellite. It then started moving towards another "star". The next thing I know the other star starts moving and they appear to be following each other back and forth around a central stationary star. One of them would go in a curved pattern and change directions. I stared at them for probably 10 minutes until it got too light to see. I thought it may be floaters or something in my eyes, so I would look away and they would still be there when I looked back. They did stay stationary at times, but were moving most of the time. They were smaller and appeared much higher than when I see satellites.
I’m just trying to decide if it was #1 or #2 business!
It’s wild how much crap is up there. Was camping out earlier this year in a “dark sky” area. There’s constantly something flying across - not planes. I’d see a faint dot flying overhead, I’d guess every minute or two. I assume all satellites
For emergency services. Not enough bandwidth to handle day to day use, now or ever. But it will save some lives in the mountains and in the oceans.
They are visible only when they are in sunlight while your location is in twilight or darkness (typically shortly after sunset or before sunrise), so once they enter Earth’s shadow or the sky brightens, they vanish from view.Earth's curvature. Ha! ***
Somebody call Woodie and get Radar-3 on this ASAP!
Tell me you’re old without saying you’re old.
Yeah. Saw a part of an interview with Elon Musk. He said outside rural areas the physics is against Starlink. The signal is a cone shape. A tower a mile away is going to beat a satellite 300 miles away every time.
I get it, man. Just a bad flat earther joke. I'll show myself out.
With the current starlink constellation, no. But SpaceX recently spent $20 billion dollars for a spectrum of new bandwidth that could (under a different satellite constellation) provide full service to cellular phones equipped with the proper chips.

I assure you, they didn't spend $20 billion just to offer emergency service connections. They have much larger ambitions.
Well, you are one strange dude or dudette. It was both, how you do a #2 without a #1?
I suppose, but he musta had something to do on the 25th and decided to make an early run and ain't had the courtesy to tell no one.
I can assure you their coverage will not be enough for 1GB for non video daily use, and over 10GB for daily video (ESPN, etc) use. I can assure you with 100% certainty that Starlink will continue to sell oversubscribed services that progressively get slower and slower as more people use it. They fill in the gaps of the swiss cheese, know that.
The best advice you can give anyone with Starlink or a Starlink mobile device: do not tell anyone you have it and you like it, unless you want it to get worse and worse.
