Starlink internet works by delivering data across space, where it travels considerably quicker than fiber-optic cable and can reach far more people and places.
In today world, most of satellite internet services are provided by
single geostationary satellites that orbit the earth at approximately 35,000
kilometres. However, Starlink is a satellite that orbits the
planet at approximately 550 kilometres and covers the whole globe.
What
exactly is Starlink?
In basic terms, Starlink is Elon Musk's Space X's satellite
internet service. The goal of Starlink is to deliver global broadband internet
access without the use of fibre or optical wires. Millions of people around the
world lack access to high-quality internet, owing to the physical limitations
of wires. Starlink intends to address this issue by delivering internet access
via satellite.

How does
Elon Musk's Starlink function?
Starlink, as previously stated, is a satellite internet
provider. This operates similarly to your present DTH connections in that a
satellite sends signals to the dish on your roof, and then a device (in the
case of DTH, a set-top box) transforms those signals. Similarly, in Starlink,
satellites beam internet to a dish on your roof called a dishy (included in the
Starlink kit), which then transmits the signal to the Starlink Wi-Fi router.
The Wi-Fi router then translates the incoming signal and connects to the
internet.
However, a strong signal between the dish and the satellite
is required to give high-quality internet. To assure robust transmissions,
SpaceX is using low-Earth orbiting satellites, which are around 550 km above
the planet. As we stated before, these satellites have a
limited area range and so it is necessary to use more satellites to provide
internet access everywhere — in order to construct a satellite web. Consider it
a network of satellites that are linked to one another and work in unison to
give internet to every corner of the globe. SpaceX intends to launch thousands
(perhaps 40,000) Starlink satellites to assure global coverage without service
interruptions.
Where can I
find Starlink?
Before you hurry to your computer and get Starlink, you
should be aware that satellite internet is not available everywhere. Despite
the fact that the internet is being transmitted from space, Starlink must
obtain permission and licences from the government before beginning operations
in a country.
Starlink is currently available in beta in the following
countries:
• United States of America
• The United Kingdom (UK)
• Canada
• Australia
• Germany
• Portugal
• Denmark
• Chile
• Ireland
• Austria
• France
• Belgium
•
Switzerland
It is important to note that even though these nations are supported, the service may not be available in all regions. We still recommend that you check Starlink's website to see if the service is accessible in your area. Enter your address in the "Service Address" section of the main page to check availability. If Starlink is not available in your area, the website will display a banner with the text. Hope this article helps you to understand what actually starlink is.
