The Starlink constellation is intended to provide global broadband internet access for subscribers. It is possible to get reliable and fast internet access even in areas with poor broadband coverage by using satellites.
During the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the eruption of a volcano in Tonga, Starlink was able to provide internet in emergency situations.
As many as 42,000 Starlink satellites are expected to be launched by the end of the year. The company regularly adds to this number by launching its Starlink flights using its Falcon 9 rocket, such as the launch yesterday which you can see highlights of below:
