How Starlink Survived May's G5 Solar Storm

 I know there are some readers who dislike Starlink, but I think the technology is interesting.    This morning I saw an article  about how the Starlink constellation survived the May 2024 G5 solar storm.  Note the references to "collision avoidance" and "ion thrusters."   Give the devil is due!  This is all pretty cool.
