Ein Raumfahrt-Fan, oder auch nur interessierter Laie, ist Donald Trump ganz sicher nicht. Aber dafür haben Präsidenten ja mehr oder weniger kompetente Berater, auf die sie mehr oder weniger hören. Hier das Original-Gestammel des nächsten Präsidenten der Vereinigten Staaten:
"The people from North Carolina came to me and they said, 'Would it be possible at all possible for you to speak to Elon Musk? We need Starlink,'" Trump said during his victory speech, adding "I said, 'What's Starlink?'"
"What the hell is it?," Trump said he asked Musk about Starlink. "He said, 'It's a communication system that's very good.' I said, 'Elon, they need it really, really badly in North Carolina. Can you get it?'"
"He had that there so fast. It was incredible," Trump said. "So, and it was great. It saved a lot of lives. He saved a lot of lives. But he's a character. He's a special guy. He's a super genius. We have to protect our geniuses. We don't have that many of them. We have to."
Trump: "Was ist Starlink? Was zur Hölle ist das?"
Musk: "Das ist ein Kommunikationssystem, das sehr gut ist."
