flag FCC approves SpaceX to deploy 7,500 new Starlink satellites by 2031, boosting global broadband access.

flag The FCC has approved SpaceX to deploy 7,500 second-generation Starlink satellites, doubling its authorized constellation to 15,000. flag The approval allows operation across five frequency bands, enabling faster speeds, direct-to-cell service, and improved coverage globally. flag SpaceX must launch half the new satellites by December 2028 and complete all by 2031, while finishing first-gen satellite deployment by late 2027. flag The move enhances global broadband access, particularly in remote areas, and follows SpaceX’s effort to lower existing satellites to 480 km for safety.
