Elon Musk Just EXPOSED US Space Force’s “Operation Blackjack!''

Project Blackjack began as a daring concept. Instead of relying on a small handful of satellites orbiting 20,000 miles above Earth, what if the US military could achieve the same, if not better, capabilities by employing hundreds of small satellites orbiting less than 1,000 miles above Earth and linked by an orbital mesh network? Wanna know more?

Hey guys! Welcome back to our channel Elon Musk Evolution where we tell you all the latest news about Elon Musk and his multi-billion companies.
In today’s video, we are going to tell you about US Space Force’s “Operation Blackjack”, and Elon Musk updating us all!

And, let’s get started!

According to Musk, the military witnessed SpaceX launch its first Starlink satellites in 2018, promising low-latency consumer broadband connectivity delivered to any point on the planet via a proliferated constellation of hundreds, if not thousands, of small satellites in low Earth orbit. These systems are expected to improve connectivity, bring space-based sensors thousands of miles closer to their targets, and reduce costs.

The United States military is already experimenting with commercial networks for connectivity at its most remote bases, such as those in the Arctic. However, Pentagon leadership also desired a government-owned space-based low-latency internet comprised of dozens of small satellites connecting sensors and weapons all over the world that was entirely dedicated to military missions, Musk stated.

It was a potentially game-changing idea, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency — the Pentagon's organization devoted to solving the military's most difficult technological problems — decided to give it a shot. Project Blackjack was born, a test of about 20 small satellites designed to demonstrate to the military the utility of a proliferated constellation.

However, the situation has rapidly changed since then. Without waiting for DARPA's demonstration, the Defense Department embraced the widely circulated LEO concept and established the Space Development Agency to implement it. In addition, the newly issued U.S. The Space Force has emphasized the importance of a hybrid network with capabilities spread across multiple orbits, including LEO, Musk explained.

The first launch of Project Blackjack has now been delayed beyond the first launch of the Space Development Agency. DARPA had hoped to have its first satellites in orbit by the end of 2021, but it is now aiming for October 2022. A month earlier, the Space Development Agency will launch its first satellites.

The Pentagon appears to have already adopted DARPA's revolutionary concept, leaving its demonstration in the dust. Is Project Blackjack still relevant in the face of duplication and delays? Musk stated.

"Isn't that a question we all face on a daily basis?" We are constantly assessing whether we are still relevant. — as with every DARPA program. Are we meeting our technical targets? Are the technical milestones still having an impact? "DARPA Project Manager Stephen Forbes explained.

"Honestly, I believe the answer is 'yes.'"

Project Blackjack may not have a significant impact on the Space Development Agency's first few batches of satellites, but Forbes is confident that his program will inform the military's future proliferated LEO efforts.
