Ukraine Expresses Outrage at Elon Musk's Role in Preventing Attack on Russian Navy
Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk faces backlash from Ukraine as revelations surface about his alleged interference in a major military operation targeting the Russian navy. An upcoming biography by historian Walter Isaacson suggests that Musk ordered his engineers to deactivate the Starlink satellite network over Russian-occupied Crimea in order to prevent a Ukrainian drone attack on Russia's naval fleet. Musk's concerns reportedly revolved around the potential escalation of tensions and nuclear conflict. Ukraine swiftly criticized Musk's actions, with Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, condemning him for preventing Ukrainian drones from targeting the Russian fleet. Musk responded, denying that he deactivated the service but admitting he chose not to enable the attack to avoid direct involvement in the war. He explained that agreeing to the request would have made SpaceX complicit in a significant act of war. The allegations highlight the evolving role of technology companies in modern conflicts. Musk's previous controversial statements and actions related to Ukraine and Russia have also drawn significant attention, reflecting his complex involvement in international geopolitics.

As the Starlink satellite moves along its path, it will unfold its solar panels and flatten itself against gravity's pull towards Earth. Following this maneuver, it will position its panels upright and point its antennae downwards to facilitate data and internet communication for customers on Earth. When these satellites are situated at the same altitude and traveling at the same speed, they rotate together around the globe in close proximity to one another while maintaining synchronized movement.
