First report I’ve seen of it, so it hasn’t been verified yet but that should also speak to how fast the speeds are!
You’re not flying a night vision equipped drone carrying ordinance with a 56K modem speed.

You’re the future, he’s already the past

I have my Starlink Dish and I am happy with the speed of connection. No more watching the Usage-Meter with the old provider.

Potentially ~1000 small payloads every week. Universities will have to up their production game (fortunately, grad-student labor is available).

At this point it seems like spacex is basically competing against itself.
