SpaceX has received more than 500,000 preorders for its Starlink satellite
internet service and anticipates no technical problems meeting the demand,
founder Elon Musk said on Tuesday.
"Only limitation is high density of users in urban areas," Musk tweeted,
responding to a post from a CNBC reporter that said the $99 deposits SpaceX
took for the service were fully refundable and did not guarantee service.
"More of a challenge when we get into the several million user range," Musk
said.
SpaceX has not set a date for Starlink's service launch, but commercial
service would not likely be offered in 2020 as it had previously planned.
The company plans to eventually deploy 12,000 satellites in total and has
said the Starlink constellation will cost it roughly $10 billion. |
