Starlink, an Internet Service initiative, has launched a dish that interested customers can purchase to learn more about SpaceX’s developing low-Earth-orbit satellite constellation.
Highlights:
According to The Verge, the dish is a slimmer and lighter-weight choice than the circular dish that Starlink beta testers will be testing in 2020.
SpaceX’s satellite internet project is called Starlink.
It was launched with the goal of deploying 12,000 satellites into low Earth orbit to offer people on the ground broadband internet access.
It will deliver services in regions where traditional internet infrastructure is lacking, such as isolated and rural areas.
In order to use the system, users must install a dish near their home, such as on their roof.
At all times, the dish should be positioned so that users have an unobstructed view of the sky (free of trees or other obstructions).
