Forget the laggy satellite internet of the past. This episode explores the transition from simple "bent pipe" relays to a sophisticated, decentralized orbital mesh. We dive into the physics of why light travels faster in a vacuum than in glass, the engineering hurdles of routing data at 17,000 miles per hour, and how "Space-BGP" is turning constellations into high-speed distributed data centers. Learn how laser links and orbital edge caching are poised to outperform terrestrial fiber backbones and redefine global connectivity. Episode 1435 — myweirdprompts.com/n/1435 (permanent short link…
