Elon Musk Sends a Tweet Through Starlink Satellite Internet

Published by Samsiani

A few hours before this report was written, Elon Musk used Starlink internet to post on Twitter. Starlink aims to provide fast internet access worldwide. At that point, his company had launched only 60 of a planned 30,000 satellites. The founder's tweet suggested that the technology was working.

The service was expected to become available first in the United States, followed by Canada the next year.
