SpaceX's satellite internet proposal was announced in January 2015. SpaceX's first 60 Starlink internet communications satellites are released all at once in this animation of images taken during the successful launch from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. More information about Starlink setup, along with answers to frequently answered questions, are available on the customer service page. "People across the globe are using Starlink to gain access to education, health services and even communications support during natural disasters." "Starlink is ideally suited for areas where connectivity has been unreliable or completely unavailable," the Starlink main page states. To see current Starlink internet availability around the world, and if it's available where you are, Starlink has an interactive map detailing locations where Starlink internet is available, which areas are on the waitlist as well as areas that are "coming soon".

Related: Starlink satellite train: How to see and track it in the night sky Starlink satellites are easier to see a day or two after their launch and deployment then become progressively harder to spot as they climb to their final orbital height of around 342 miles (550 km). The satellites can appear as a string of pearls or a "train" of bright lights moving across the night sky.
You don't need any special equipment to see Starlink satellites as they are visible to the unaided eye. This show is not welcomed by all and can significantly hinder both optical and radio astronomical observations. Starlink satellites orbit approximately 342 miles (550 kilometers) above Earth and put on a spectacular show for observers as they move across the sky.
