Starlink is available in most of the United States and Canada and plans to be available worldwide with minimal interference by 2023. The most significant hurdle Starlink and SpaceX faces is regulatory approval sought in countries like Russia and China. The first Starlink satellites were sent up in 2019, and more are sent up more and more often as the end of the project approaches.
Starlink is an outer orbit satellite system created by scientists at SpaceX. The purpose of Starlink is to develop a constellation of linked satellites that will bring the ability to access high-data operations to even the most rural of areas. The services available through Starlink Internet currently include video calls, online gaming and streaming. The price has recently increased due to inflation, but the quality continues to grow.

Worldwide Access To Be Expected By 2023
According to SpaceX, 52 more satellites were launched on Aug. 9, 2022. These satellites were sent up on the Falcon 9 booster, making this the second Starlink mission for which Falcon 9 has been used. Reusing this booster and other materials makes it possible for SpaceX to make multiple launches as needed without draining precious monetary and physical resources. Responsible deployment of resources will enable SpaceX to improve the Starlink system periodically as science and technology improve.
Elon Musk and SpaceX continue to impress as the Starlink constellation is improved and built upon. Starlink is even being made available on boats, increasing accessibility even more. More satellites are planned to be launched on Falcon 9 on Aug. 18, 2022, leading to more updates and a wider area of accessibility. Worldwide access is coming in 2023, and it will change the world. The 20 milliseconds it takes Starlink to send information between the satellites and the earth is monumental and will provide unmatched internet access to millions.
