Author: Aayushya Ranjan

Starlink, the satellite internet service by SpaceX, has reached a significant milestone by connecting more than 4 million users across over 100 countries and territories. This rapid expansion highlights Starlink’s commitment to providing reliable high-speed internet access to people, businesses, and organizations in diverse markets spanning all seven continents.

With a focus on delivering high-speed connectivity, Starlink offers impressive specifications, including download speeds ranging from 40 to over 220 Mbps, upload speeds between 8 and 25 Mbps, and latencies of 20 to 60 milliseconds. This robust performance enables users to engage in activities such as streaming, online gaming, and remote work without compromising on quality.

As Starlink continues to grow its global footprint, its services are increasingly utilized in remote and underserved areas, where traditional internet infrastructure has been limited. By leveraging a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth, Starlink aims to bridge the digital divide and empower communities with access to essential online resources and services.
