Getting the Internet from space - it’s a thing. But how does Starlink get fast internet access streamed to the ground? And are they the only ones?
Well, in this episode the guys chat about satellite internet constellations - who needs them, how they work, who is operating them, and what the benefits and drawbacks are. As a people, we are on track to more than triple the number of satellites zipping around the earth in just the next couple of years, most of them for the sole purpose of bringing high-speed internet access to rural and otherwise internet-barren areas.
It’s fascinating tech, and while this episode is far from a deep dive, there are plenty of details that we bet you don’t already know!
