Auf den Dächern von Havanna, Matanzas und Santa Clara installieren wohlhabende Kubaner heimlich Starlink-Empfänger, um Zugang zu stabilem Internet zu erhalten und so das staatliche Verbot sowie das Monopol von Etecsa zu umgehen. Fachkräfte wie Programmierer sind inmitten von Stromausfällen und unzuverlässigen Verbindungen auf geschmuggelte Geräte angewiesen, die über Solarbatterien betrieben werden. Elon Musk bestätigte am 16. März, dass der Dienst in Kuba funktioniere, obwohl er nicht zugelassen sei.
Muon Space, a California-based startup, announced a partnership with SpaceX to equip its satellites with Starlink terminals, enabling continuous high-speed data links in low-Earth orbit. This marks the first commercial use of Starlink for in-flight connectivity beyond SpaceX itself. The integration aims to drastically reduce data latency for missions like wildfire detection.
