La Derecha Diario Elon Musk travels around the world in his plane to test the effectiveness of Starlink
The billionaire owner of Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink, among others, is on an adventure around the world to demonstrate the service's capabilities
In recent days, the billionaire Elon Musk has been traveling the world aboard his private jet to test the great efficiency of the Starlink service. The test is being conducted by Musk himself, who is playing data-heavy video games to perform an effective test.
In addition to testing his company's satellite internet capabilities through the heavy load of video games, Musk carried out several activities simultaneously. This is to verify efficiency in the multiplicity of devices.
The innovative satellite internet service has revolutionized the world in recent years, as it provides a service that is practically faultless. The internet service provider company has ventured into markets that would not have been explored conventionally.
Within the Argentine market, the success has been such that even due to the high demand for the service, it has collapsed in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA). In response to this, the company announced that a waiting list for new users will be created.
Not only in the Argentine market has the company experienced saturations due to high demand, but cities like London, Austin, Guadalajara, and Rio de Janeiro have seen the same scenario.
Part of these tests conducted by Elon Musk are part of a greater effort to analyze the possibility of launching new satellites into space. This would relieve pressure on the current system and add more customers to the operations.
The service provided by Starlink has become an excellent solution for those living in rural areas. Not only have its easy installation and great accessibility been advantages, but its excellent performance has been a determining factor in achieving great success as a company.
The current Starlink satellite (V2) has a lifespan of approximately 5 years, and together with the space company SpaceX (also owned by Elon Musk) they plan to form a constellation of nearly 42,000 satellites.
Starlink was born as an initiative of SpaceX, which announced an internet alternative in 2015. Since then, the company has refined its efforts to achieve superiority in the internet provider market, and has been authorized by U.S. authorities to put nearly 12,000 satellites into orbit.
