Es steht wohl kein #Parkraum für ihren #Privatjet zur Verfügung, da schon so viele andere mit privaten Jets anreisen und alles blockieren.

#Argh! So wird das nix mit der #Rettung des #Klimas!


Still some hope. Also a chance for some robotic gallows humor, I suppose. The robots did deploy, even though the craft landed basically upside down.

Meanwhile, in #Japan, the current #Covid wave is as bad as the Delta variant wave (the only official data left is the number of hospital admissions) and more and more people act as if it was over.

As with many of these experiments, it could be a long time before this performance has a meaningful impact. While the four-core #fiber would work with existing networks, the system could easily be very expensive. It's more likely to see initial use with internet backbones and other major networking projects where capacity matters more than cost.
