Image: Starlink's main page as of 9:50AM EDT on May 28 Starlink is a satellite internet constellation operated by Starlink Services, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of American aerospace company SpaceX. It aims to provide high-speed, low-latency broadband internet connections globally. The constellation consists of over 6,000 mass-produced small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) that communicate with designated ground transceivers. As of May 2024, Starlink has more than 3 million subscribers. In the meantime, some Starlink customers have taken to Elon Musk's other company, X, to express their frustration (and humor).
