Starlink, owned by Elon Musk, has changed the game in terms of internet accessibility in rural and other underserved areas lacking high-speed broadband infrastructure. It has 2 million US subscribers, and more than 6 million globally.

Starlink appears to have largely recovered from a widespread outage on Thursday afternoon that affected its services across the United States and other parts of the world. Reports of service disruptions flooded outage tracker Down Detector earlier in the afternoon, with users experiencing internet outages and, in some cases, total blackouts.

A rare global interruption in the Starlink satellite Internet network knocked subscribers offline for more than two hours on Thursday, the longest widespread outage since SpaceX opened the service to consumers nearly five years ago.

Soldiers panicked, drones surveilling Russian forces went dark, and long-range artillery units struggled to hit targets.

If you have an iPhone 13 or later, the “game-changer” new upgrade from T-Mobile and Starlink is now live — even if T-Mobile isn’t your carrier.

SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral in Florida early Saturday morning. This latest mission adds 28 more satellites into orbit, according to the company.

Starlink systems used by Ukrainian military units were down for two and a half hours overnight, a senior commander said, part of a global issue that disrupted the satellite internet provider.

SpaceX is targeting Saturday evening for the launch of its latest Starlink Mission from Vandenberg Space Force Base.
