SPACEX OFFERS NEW LOOK AT V3 STARLINK SATELLITE FOR GIGABIT SPEEDS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Starlink V3 is significantly longer and larger than its predecessors. It uses a pair of longer solar arrays, and the central satellite bus is also bigger. The improvements will enable the satellites to deliver gigabit internet speeds. The larger size explains why SpaceX needs to use Starship to deploy V3 satellites rather than on a Falcon 9. Each V3 could weigh up to 2,000 kilograms.
