Answers resolve YES once SpaceX confirms that a Starlink satellite (that had been launched on a Starship) has been successfully deployed to orbit Otherwise, answers will resolve NO as their dates are reached (or may resolve NO early if sufficiently certain) Resolves based on the time of deployment, not the time of launch Any type of Starlink satellite counts as long as Starlink is in the name (eg Starshield would not count despite being a close derivative) Additionally, the Starlink satellite must be technically capable of functioning (i.e. starlink mass simulators or dummy starlinks wouldn't count), though whether the satellite actually functions successfully or not once in orbit is irrelevant UTC is used Related markets: @/Nat/when-will-starship-first-deploy-a-c
