But the beverage giant PepsiCo actually took the idea seriously, as reported by Futurism. A spokesperson for PepsiCo’s Russian branch told Futurism that the company partnered with StartRocket and could launch an ad for their drink Adrenaline Rush as early as 2021. “We believe in StartRocket potential,” PepsiCo spokesperson Olga Mangova told Futurism in an email. “Orbital billboards are the revolution on the market of communications.” StartRocket also claimed they’ve now successfully tested their technology using a weather balloon.
Futurism’s initial story ran on Saturday. And by Monday afternoon, PepsiCo was already walking back the comments made to Gizmodo. The beverage maker said it did partner with StartRocket on the test, but that it was just a one-time thing.
“We can confirm StartRocket performed an exploratory test for stratosphere advertisements using the Adrenaline GameChangers logo,” a spokesperson for PepsiCo told Gizmodo. “This was a one-time event; we have no further plans to test or commercially use this technology at this time.”
WatPepsiCo initially told Futurism that their campaign will address “stereotypes and unjustified prejudices against gamers.” How stigma against video game enthusiasts and night sky advertisements relate is unclear.
Nonetheless, Barentine and other astronomers reached for comment agreed that space advertising like StartRocket’s proposal is likely imminent. There are no laws against making CubeSats spell out messages and the technology already exists to make this possible. If not Pepsi, another company with a large marketing budget may want to do something similar.

Reminds me of those dumb memes going around now...
No one: ....
Gamers: WE'RE SO MISUNDERSTOOD. YOU'RE SO BIASED AGAINST US. GAMING ISN'T A BAD THING.

I haven't been able to find any indication of who exactly would be launching their satellites. The number they want to launch at one time would exceed most of the small launchers coming on the market, and I would hope that companies like SpaceX would tell them to eff off.
Although, part of me wants at least one sign to launch so that hackers from 4chan could make it display a giant penis.

I would characterize my reaction as less waiting for the top to fall than disappointment that it didn't.

I’m sure it’s completely water-tight, as well.

We had one of those in the place we lived at in Austria. It was indeed waterproof but it did not operate as smoothly as the video would imply. In fact, it was a PITA to open and close. But, it was pretty sweet to pop out of the roof to have a beverage, an occasional cigar, and look at the Alps. I believe they are not cheap though.

School board tells coach to go pound sand when he asks for $13,000 to buy new football team uniforms early because his players favorite numbered jerseys don't fit and preferred jersey numbers are important enough to warrant the purchase.

I am delighted in a couple different ways by this.
