Reusable rocketry, specifically SpaceX Starship. If it pans out it’s going to completely change our access to space and make many of those old dreams from the 1970s plausible.
RNA vaccines for basically everything, including customized vaccines for cancer. There’s also actual progress happening in general cures for autoimmune diseases.
Is robotics too close to AI? There are multiple companies working on general-purpose humanoid robots intended for mass production with price targets in the ten to twenty thousand dollar range, we may be getting within sight of actual robot butlers.
Ah, that only happens right after launch when they’re still bunched together. Once the satellites get into their final orbit they spread out. The newer models also have anti-reflection systems that make them much harder to spot, SpaceX has been working with astronomers on that.

I’m really not looking forward to the commercialization of low earth orbit, and SpaceX seems to be an accelerator of this.
Low Earth orbit has been heavily commercialized for decades already. If you mean Starlink specifically, what’s wrong with it?
Looking up at the night sky and seeing a visible stream of dots
