Best part is? We can predict these types of solar events and storms in advance. Like, over a day in advance usually.

We can see it coming from different solar events and know the storm is coming.

So Starlink decided to ignore those warnings and launch anyways.

So they’re space garbage now and adding to the debris up there. 
Putting the money this cost into a pile and setting it on fire would have literally been a better use of it. 

Don’t worry, these ones won’t be space garbage! The storm pushed them too far down to enter an effective orbit, so they’re going to fall back to Earth and burn up in the atmosphere. So, setting it all on fire directly would’ve been faster, but this will have some cool light shows in the sky at least.
