The direct communication service will start with text messages. And in the coming years it will be possible to send audio and other data.
SpaceX has launched Starlink satellites that can transmit phone signals from space directly to smartphones. Reuters reported this on Wednesday, January 3.
It was noted that the American wireless operator will use Starlink satellites to give mobile users access to the network in some parts of the United States.
Other wireless providers around the world, including Japan’s KDDI, Australia’s Optus, New Zealand’s One NZ, and Canada’s Rogers, will partner with SpaceX to launch the point-to-point technology.
According to telecommunications company T-Mobile, direct phone service will begin with text messaging, and audio and other data capabilities should be added in the coming years.
Let’s remember that at the end of December, SpaceX launched the German reconnaissance satellites.
It was previously reported that SpaceX will launch the X-37B unmanned spaceplane for the first time in the interest of the US Space Force.
