The Starlink Internet satellite service, which is property and is operated by Spacex by Elon Musk, seemed to suffer a brief interruption of the network on Monday, with thousands of reports of service interruptions in Downetector, a site that records technological problems.
The interruption marked the second in two weeks for Starlink. Spacex did not immediately respond to a comment request.
The interruption of July 24 of the network lasted several hours, with the Vice President of Spacex of Starlink Engineering Michael Nicolls blaming the issue of “failure of key internal software services that operate the central network” behind Starlink.
This interruption followed the launch of the satellite service with T-Mobile Starlink Motor, a direct telephone service created to keep intelligent telephone users connected “in places in places that cannot reach the transport towers,” according to the T-Mobile website.
Spacex provides Starlink Internet service to more than six million users in 140 countries, according to the company’s website, although the company does not publicly inform subscriber rates.
Spacex Starlink constellation is much larger than any competitor. He currently has more than 7,000 operational broadband satellites, according to an investigation by astronomer Jonathan McDowell.
On Monday, Musk Spacex successfully launched another group of satellites to add to their Starlink constellation from the base of the Vandenberg space force in southern California.
Currently, Spacex aims to increase the number of Vandenberg releases and landings from 50 to approximately 100 per year.
On Thursday of last week, the Coastal Commission of California voted unanimously to oppose the application of the US space force. Uu. To carry out that greater volume of Spacex is thrown there.
The commission has said that the officials of the space force and the space force have not been able to evaluate and adequately inform the possible impacts of the greatest releases in the neighboring cities and the local wildlife, among other issues.
President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order that sought to relieve the environmental regulations seen by Musk, and others, as hindering commercial spatial operations.
