Musk's latest endeavor with internet company Starlink shows how far he is willing to go in order to get into as many industries as possible.
Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue Iran will soon have a Starlink internet service provider after the U.S. decided to lift sanctions there.
Musk responded to a statement by the Secretary of State.
Musk announced on September 18 that Starlink was active all over the world.
According to a new FCC filing, following Musk's announcement of Starlink's Iranian endeavor, the internet provider will also be available for usage on school buses in the U.S.
The document states that most of the students won't have access to high-speed broadband at home. Students will be able to maximize their commute time for educational internet use, as well as time spent with family and friends, if school buses are connected.
Bus rides that are over 60 minutes in each direction on routes in rural parts of the country will be the focus of the services.
Over $35 million from the FCC's Emergency Connectivity Fund has been put towards providing free wi-fi on school buses since May of this year.
Last month, it was announced that Starlink would be expanding to Royal Caribbean cruise ships.
The internet service provider broke the news of a partnership with T-Mobile which will provide near complete coverage in most places in the US.
Musk'sspace X is a subsidiary of Starlink.
