“The next generation Starlink satellites, which are so big that only Starship can launch them, will allow for a 10X increase in bandwidth and, with the reduced altitude, faster latency,” Musk said on Monday.
SpaceX requested authority to lower the altitude of its next-generation Starlink satellites, bringing them closer to Earth, and for permission to use authorized frequencies with more flexibility. Granting these modifications, SpaceX said, will deliver fiber-like broadband and ubiquitous mobile connectivity and help close the digital divide for billions of people.
