The climate case for planting trees has been overhyped – but it's not too late (theconversation.com)

Pretty impressive. What is the laser link bandwidth between starlink satellites? Can any starlink node also be a relay station? I don't know much about the network, I guess I didn't really realize that links between satellites was a thing now, I thought it required that a node have LOS to you and a base station for the system to work.

(Edit) According to this (old) link there's something over 40pb of laser link traffic every day.
