SignumStarlink plans to introduce gigabit download speeds via its satellite network in 2026, initially available to owners of premium equipment. Broader expansion and accessibility are expected after the launch of V3 satellites.
SignumSpaceX has requested permission to launch and operate up to 100,000 third-generation Starlink satellites, which would significantly increase the system's capacity but also raises concerns about orbital safety.
SignumThe U.S. Federal Communications Commission has updated its rules for the use of satellite spectrum to increase speeds, reduce costs, and improve the reliability of satellite internet. These changes take into account modern technologies and could boost the capacity of satellite networks by up to seven times.
SignumSamsung has confirmed that certain apps on supported Galaxy smartphones, including WhatsApp and X, can now operate via satellite connection even without a mobile network. The availability of this feature depends on the region, and the list of compatible apps can be found in the device settings.
SignumChinese researchers have doubled the data transmission speed of laser communication between a satellite and Earth to 120 Gbit/s, setting a national record without upgrading the hardware—achieving this solely through software updates.
