•FCC approves Starlink plan for cellular phone service, with some limits
82% Informative
The Federal Communications Commission issued an order that partially grants SpaceX's application while imposing conditions and deferring a decision on some aspects of the application.
This means that in areas not covered by terrestrial cellular networks, Starlink satellites can provide service to cell phones.
The approval lets Starlink and T-Mobile move ahead with their plan to provide satellite service to phones in cellular dead spots.
