Answers resolve YES once SpaceX confirms that a Starlink satellite (that had been launched on a Starship) has been successfully deployed to orbit

Otherwise, answers will resolve NO as their dates are reached

Resolves based on the time of deployment, not the time of launch

Any type of Starlink satellite counts as long as Starlink is in the name (eg Starshield would not count despite being a close derivative)

UTC is used

filled a Ṁ10 By end of April 2025 NO at 45% order

Added some new dates

Resolving 'By end of December 2024' to NO as I believe the following information is sufficiently conclusive (next launch not till next year and still suborbital)
