States has been and Starlink itself has been in shutting off the ability of the Russians to use those systems.
So the Starlink satellites, hundreds and hundreds of them up there.

So if you have one common starling, it looks like this.
And it seems that what the starlings are doing is looking at the birds-- about the seven or six birds-- that
Did you write part of "Hello Starling" or something?

The pro case for that is things like Starlink, the space internet, that will-- for the first time ever, we will have this always-on fabric
We've seen, with Starlink, there's been times when Elon wanted to turn it off because he didn't think he was getting enough money.
This is mostly due to satellite mega constellations like SpaceX's Starlink.
And some physicists took stereoscopic photos of the flocks of starlings-- the murmurations over Rome.

He even asked SpaceX founder Elon Musk to stop Russia from using Starlink satellites for drone attacks.

We could potentially detect their satellite systems, their Starlinks.

When the Russians went in to try to take out Ukraine's communications infrastructure, it was Starlink that came in as the replacement for that
There have been times when it seemed like maybe he was even pro-Russian and was holding Starlink back from the Ukrainian military.
Well, the first thing you'll have noticed about the film of the starlings is that the density changes.
And the thing is, if you can do that with starlings, then you can generalize, and you can say, "Okay, maybe neurons flock,

I may look at how successful Elon Musk is and go, "Wow," like, that's unbelievable." But when I use Starlink, I go,

If the US government, if any government, wanted to replace Starlink, they just couldn't because they don't have a rival system.
In fact, you can see several lines of yellow dots on the screenshot, those are Starlink satellites.
Even though I can just maybe afford a suburban house, why don't I just buy a trailer home, and I'm going to put a Starlink satellite connection on top

So what I did was, in "The Silence of the Lambs," Lecter, when he's telling Starling the history of Buffalo Bill,
I think often about, in Brighton where I live, in the winter, in the evenings around sunset, these murmuration of starlings start flocking
And that's part of the work we do in my lab, we try and develop mathematical ways of measuring the "flockiness" of starlings.
