| Starlink broadband for vehicles mooted SpaceX asks for permission SpaceX asked the FCC for permission to deploy Starlink satellite broadband to aircraft, ships, large trucks & RVs. SpaceX said it wants the authority to deploy and operate these earth stations throughout the United States and its territories, international waters worldwide, and on US-registered aircraft operating worldwide and non-US-registered aircraft operating in US airspace. The move would allow a new class of ground-based components for SpaceX's satellite system that will expand the range of broadband capabilities available to moving vehicles throughout the United States and to moving vessels and aircraft worldwide, SpaceX said. Internet users are no longer "willing to forego connectivity while on the move, whether driving a truck across the country, moving a freighter from Europe to a US port, or while on a domestic or international flight", SpaceX said. https://fudzilla.com/news/automotive...d-for-vehicles |
