The rise of Elon Musk and SpaceX
SpaceX asks to operate 5 million end-user terminals after the US approves Amazon’s rival satellite broadband plan.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX has applied for a license to roll out five million ‘UFO on a stick’ end-user terminals, after 700,000 US residents signed up to be updated about the service’s availability.
“SpaceX seeks to increase the number of fixed earth stations authorized under this blanket license from 1,000,000 to 5,000,000,” the company said in an application to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
