[amsat-bb] Starlink....

[Vinny Stipo]

The Wikipedia article is pretty good (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink_(satellite_constellation) ), far
from nothing.

Their "production" launch is coming up, 60 Satellites will be
deployed.  May 16, 2019 02:30 UTC.

These two have been up for a while, however "they" say the ones that will
be deployed are different.
