Starlink

SpaceX's Starlink communications satellite constellation is doing double duty as the company announces that it's moonlighting as the Stargaze Space Situational Awareness system that can track and manage traffic in low Earth orbit.

Amazon is launching 27 satellites into Low Earth Orbit next week, kicking off its years-in-the-making plan to set up a massive constellation and deliver internet access anywhere on the globe – similar to SpaceX's Starlink service.

SpaceX has just launched 20 of its Starlink satellites up into Earth's orbit, enabling direct-to-cellphone connectivity anywhere on the planet. That completes the constellation's first orbital shell, following a test of six satellites back in January.

In a mobile communications breakthrough, SpaceX has sent the first X post from a regular, unmodified smartphone using Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit, bringing the end of cellular dead zones a step closer.

SpaceX has launched a new Starlink constellation of satellites for T-Mobile with Direct to Cell capabilities. These will allow subscribers with smart phones to call, text and browse directly from satellites, even when they're in a reception 'dead zone'.

Two test satellites blasted off on board a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket emblazoned with Amazon’s famous logo on Friday, ahead of more than 3,200 planned to orbit the Earth, challenging Elon Musk’s reign over broadband real estate in space.

Radio telescopes are picking up strange signals from an intelligent lifeform – ourselves. A new study has shown that satellite constellations like SpaceX’s Starlink swarm are unintentionally leaking signals that can interfere with vital observations.

With its Starlink satellite-based internet now up and running in many corners of the globe and touching all seven continents, SpaceX is introducing a dedicated arm for national security applications called Starshield.

One of the shortcomings of SpaceX's Starlink RV service is that it can only be used while parked. SpaceX has solved that issue with a mobile internet option for use on the go, a potential game changer for those who want to work from the passenger seat.

SpaceX launched its first Starlink satellite in 2019 with a vision of blanketing the globe in high-speed internet, and it has this week ticked off an important milestone in this grand plan, beaming the service down to scientists in Antarctica.

SpaceX is looking to expand the reach of its Starlink internet service, through a new partnership with T-Mobile that will see the telecommunications giant's wireless network combine with orbiting satellites to fill holes in its current coverage.

Days after SpaceX launched Starlink for RVs last week, Alphavan jumped on the news and announced Starlink-ready camper vans. The German brand will prep its eponymous vans for simple, plug-and-play compatibility with Musk's off-grid internet service.
