  • In order to offer satellite services in any nation-state, ITU regulatio

    From David P.@21:1/5 to All on Wed Nov 16 11:50:22 2022
    In order to offer satellite services in any nation-state, ITU regulations and long-standing international treaties require that landing rights be granted by each country jurisdiction, and within a country, by the national communications regulators. As a
    result, even though the Starlink network has near-global reach at latitudes below approx. 60°, broadband services can only be provided in 40 countries as of Sept 2022. SpaceX can also have business operation and economic considerations that may make a
    difference in which countries Starlink service is offered, in which order, and how soon. For example, SpaceX formally requested authorization for Canada only in June 2020, the Canadian regulatory authority approved it in Nov 2020, and SpaceX rolled out
    service two months later, in Jan 2021. As of Sept 2022, Starlink services were on offer in 40 countries, with applications pending regulatory approval in many more.

    Japan's major mobile provider, KDDI, announced a partnership with SpaceX to begin offering in 2022 expanded connectivity for its rural mobile customers via 1,200 remote mobile towers.

    On 25 April 2022, Hawaiian Airlines announced an agreement with Starlink to provide free internet access on its aircraft, becoming the first airline to use Starlink. By July 2022, Starlink internet service was available in 36 countries and 41 markets.

    In May 2022, it was announced that regulatory approval had been granted for Nigeria, Mozambique, and the Philippines.
