BIG WIN FOR SPACEX AS FCC CLEARS IT TO UPGRADE STARLINK WITH GIGABIT SPEEDS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

SpaceX's plan to upgrade Starlink with gigabit internet speeds has received partial approval from the US FCC. The company can now launch 7,500 more satellites, operate its constellation at lower orbits, and use a larger swath of radio frequencies. SpaceX has received a time-limited waiver to operate the Starlink network at higher power levels to improve speeds. The waiver is confined to Starlink operations in the US.
