Original Note:
The FCC did not “cancel” the Starlink contract; rather they denied SpaceX’s application after a preliminary bid. The discussions between SpaceX and the FCC were ongoing for 2 years before the final rejection decision was made, due to uncertainty about the Starship roadmap. https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-23-105A1.pdf
