New Delhi: Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, is a space exploration company, SpaceX. One of the major ‘missions’ of SpaceX is the satellite-based Internet service called Starlink. Starlink’s official website is now allowing users to pre-order service. Learn how you too can apply in Starlink, and learn all its details. Starlink is SpaceX’s satellite-based Internet service and is currently in the beta-testing phase. Internet connectivity will be provided directly through the satellite which SpaceX will launch in Orbit.
For this, you have to go to Starlink’s website starlink.com, and here you will have to enter your email id and the address of the area where you want internet service.
When will you get internet service from Starlink?
After entering the service area, you will be given information about a certain timeframe. Attempters for several regions in Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida received a message stating, “In 2022 Starlink is targeting coverage in your area.”
At present, Starlink tells coverage according to your area and not according to the city. You have to fill the area-wise address and not according to the city. For example, if you enter Mumbai or New Delhi, you will not know the relative timeframe. So you have to enter an exact area of the city.
How much do you have to pay for pre-booking?
The cost of pre-booking of the service is $ 99 (about 7,200 Rupees). This amount is fully refundable and Starlink is making it clear that even after depositing the deposit amount, ‘service is not guaranteed’.
Why can’t you get the service even after paying the pre-booking amount?
Starlink is clarifying that – when and why – service will be available. It will depend on many factors, including ‘Variable Regulatory Approval’.
What do you get on pre-booking of Starlink Internet service?
Online reports have reported that customers in countries such as USA, Australia and Mexico have received a Starlink kit. The kit has a router, antenna, mount and power supply cable.
