[SpaceX Plans to Deploy First Batch of V3 Starlink Satellites with Starship Test Flight as Early as Next Week] Odaily Planet Daily News: SpaceX has grand ambitions for Starship. If all goes according to plan, this 407-foot-tall rocket will one day be used to build an orbital artificial intelligence data center network and transport humans to the Moon and Mars. But first, the company plans to use Starship to send a batch of new and improved moneymakers—Starlink satellites—into space. SpaceX plans to launch its first batch of V3 satellites into orbit during a critical Starship test flight as early as next week. Ensuring Starship operates as envisioned is crucial for SpaceX and its shareholders. The company needs Starship not only to revitalize its own Starlink communications network—which contributed nearly 55% of the company’s revenue in the second quarter—but also to launch satellites for a variety of commercial purposes. Then, perhaps its most lucrative mission: sending a futuristic orbital data center into space, which SpaceX claims could help tap into the $26.5 trillion artificial intelligence market. (Bloomberg)
