I read in the Economist that the gen of starlink satellites will have
the ability to route messages between each satellite. Would conventional
routing protocols be up to such a challenge? Or would it have to be
custom made for that problem? And since a lot of companies and countries
are getting

I suspect, although I have no references, that satellite to ground
connectivity is probably more “circuit-based” than per-packet or frame.
Iridium has done inter satellite communication for decades. I wonder if it
wouldn’t be something very similar. Although it would be totally on-brand
for them t
Yes re: Iridium. Contrary to what the Chief Huckster may say, inter-sat
comms are not some revolutionary thing that he invented.
It’s also not likely to function anything like they show in marketing
promos, with data magically zipping around the constellation between nodes
in different inclination

I think the thing they're calling revolutionary is the idea of those links
being directional lasers.
It makes some sense... if you can basically emit the same signal you'd
shoot down a strand of single mode but aim it through the mostly vacuum of
space in the exact direction of your neighbor then
