Topic: The Starship abort, Chinese rockets, and a tumbling stock price

Starship has never launched to orbit, every flight has always been suborbital, that’s why the second stage lands in the Indian Ocean… "lands" (blows up). Anyway, I was watching the live stream yesterday during the abort, a little before that they announced they’d be launching Starlink satellites, and somebody in the chat asked how are they going to do that if it’s a suborbital flight.
