川普特使籲馬斯克「1件事」伸援手 幫幫伊朗好朋友
格瑞內爾在社群平台X上發文，直接向馬斯克提問，「你是否能在接下來的幾個星期內，對伊朗免費開通『星鏈』」服務？我在伊朗的朋友們目前無法正常獲取資訊」。格瑞內爾更進一步表示，他個人非常願意為此舉「捐款」，並且深信會有其他人一同響應。馬斯克目前尚未公開回應。
Can you turn on @Starlink for free in Iran for the next few weeks, @elonmusk?My friends inside Iran don't have regular access to information right now. I'll chip in a donation and I think others would, too.

先前在俄烏衝突爆發後，馬斯克曾緊急授權烏克蘭軍方使用星鏈，並支援了大量星鏈通訊終端。而烏克蘭則藉此進行定位，並操控無人機等發動攻擊，取得了大量戰果。
以色列13日針對伊朗多地發動大規模空襲以來，伊朗近半的時間處於通訊中斷狀態，不僅無法與外界聯繫，也無法與全國各地的親屬聯繫。
伊朗在實施全國斷網近3天後，於當地時間21日晚上陸續恢復網路連線。伊朗政府之前聲稱，實施斷網是因為遭到以色列的網路安全威脅。監控全球上網情況的非政府組織NetBlocks.org在21日表示，伊朗的部分網路服務當天短暫恢復，但當天晚些時候再次中斷。

不過以色列反控伊朗斷網是為了控制通訊，讓伊朗民眾只能單方面接受伊朗當局所聲稱的戰爭順利假象。「伊朗政權對資訊領域的控制非常非常嚴格，」數位權利組織Access Now駐柏林的政策和倡議總監Marwa Fatafta在接受美聯社採訪時表示，「我們知道伊朗政權關閉網站的原因。他們想要控制資訊。所以他們的目標非常明確」。

Starlink Urges Change to South African Black Ownership Rules
Elon Musk's SpaceX urged South Africa to consider an alternative to Black ownership rules for telecom companies that want to operate in Africa's largest economy. SpaceX asked the authorities to allow it to operate using an equity-equivalent program as an alternative to the existing requirement that Black people have 30% ownership of businesses operating in the ICT sector, the company said in a letter to the government seen by Bloomberg. It wants such programs to be a standard for the industry, according to the submission.

Firefly Aerospace eyes Japan rocket launches for Asia market
By Kantaro Komiya TOKYO (Reuters) -Firefly Aerospace is exploring an option to launch its Alpha rocket from Japan as the U.S. rocket maker expands its satellite launch services globally, a Japanese company operating a spaceport in the country's northern Hokkaido said on Monday. The plan could make Japan the second offshore launch site - and first in Asia - for Firefly, the Texas-based rival to Elon Musk's market leader SpaceX, which had its Nasdaq debut earlier this month and is preparing for an Alpha launch in Sweden. Space Cotan, operator of the Hokkaido Spaceport located about 820 km (510 mi) northeast of Tokyo, said it and Firefly signed a preliminary agreement to study the feasibility of launching the small-lift rocket Alpha from there. Launching Alpha from Japan "would allow us to serve the larger satellite industry in Asia and add resiliency for U.S. allies with a proven orbital launch vehicle," Adam Oakes, Firefly's vice president of launch, said in a statement published on Space Cotan's website. A feasibility study would be conducted to assess the regulatory hurdles, timeframe and investments for a launch pad for Alpha in Hokkaido, said Space Cotan spokesperson Ryota Ito. The plan would require a space technology safeguards agreement (TSA) between Washington and Tokyo that would allow American rocket launches in Japan, Ito added. The governments last year kicked off the negotiations but have not reached an agreement. A U.S.-Sweden TSA signed in June cleared the path for Firefly's launches from the Arctic. Four of Firefly's six Alpha flights since 2021 have ended in failure, most recently in April. While Japan's national space agency has launched rockets for decades, private rockets are nascent and most Japanese satellite operators rely on foreign options such as SpaceX's Falcon 9 or Rocket Lab's Electron. Previously, U.S. company Virgin Orbit aimed to use Japan's southwest Oita Airport for launches but the plan was scrapped after the firm went bankrupt in 2023. Colorado-based Sierra Space has an ongoing plan to land its spaceplane on Oita beyond 2027. Taiwanese firm TiSpace last month conducted what could be the first foreign launch in Hokkaido, but the suborbital flight failed within a minute. Japan's government is targeting 30 launches of Japanese rockets a year by the early 2030s and subsidises domestic enterprises such as Space One and Toyota-backed Interstellar Technologies.

How to watch SpaceX launch the mighty Starship on its 10th flight
SpaceX is close to launching its enormous Starship rocket for the 10th time. The spaceflight company recently announced that it's targeting Sunday, August 24, for the highly anticipated launch. Recommended Videos Comprising the upper stage Starship spacecraft and first-stage Super Heavy booster, the rocket will launch from SpaceX's Starbase facility in Texas. Once fully operational, NASA and SpaceX hope to use the 121-meter-tall Starship rocket for crew and cargo missions to the moon and possibly even Mars. First up, NASA wants to use a modified version of the spacecraft to return humans to the lunar surface in the Artemis III mission, which is currently set for 2027. But with testing of the Starship ongoing, that date may slip. SpaceX has designed the Starship to be a fully reusable rocket, allowing it to use both the booster and spacecraft for multiple missions, thereby saving massively on mission costs. How to watch SpaceX is targeting 6:30 p.m. (7:30 p.m. ET) on Sunday, August 24, for the 10th Starship launch from the company's Starbase facility near Boca Chica, Texas. Technical issues or adverse weather conditions could prompt SpaceX to launch later, so be sure to check back here — or SpaceX's X account — for the latest information. The launch will be livestreamed by SpaceX on its X account. What to expect Whether you're there in person or watching online, you'll witness the world's most powerful rocket climbing skyward, generating around 17 million pounds of thrust as the huge rocket leaves the launchpad. SpaceX will livestream the launch and early part of the flight, with cameras attached to both the Super Heavy booster and Starship spacecraft tracking the mission's progress. Unlike some earlier Starship flights, the Super Heavy will not be returning to the launch tower after liftoff. Instead, cameras will capture footage of both parts of the vehicle coming down in their respective splashdown sites. One more thing … SpaceX chief Elon Musk has promised to give an update on the company's plans for the Starship shortly before the 10th flight takes place. The event will likely involve Musk speaking from a stage at Starbase. We'll update here when SpaceX confirms a start time for the event.
