Just 60% of the world has internet. Elon Musk plans to change that.

23 August, 2022

I’m not sure if you’re aware, there’s been a lot happening in the world of satellite internet recently. In late July, two of Europe’s biggest satellite internet operators – – announced a merger. Why? They said they want to better compete with Elon Musk’s Starlink. Then, Starlink was in the headlines after parts of one of their rockets crashed down to earth and landed in a paddock in rural Australia. Thankfully, no one was hurt. But it did get us thinking here at The Dive. For an industry that is sending thousands of satellites up into the sky, there is very little said about it. And we had a lot of questions. Today Alec and Sascha try to answer them, and ask the question – what’s the go with satellite internet?
