Cishe sekuyiminyaka emibili u-Elon Musk ethule iphrojekthi enkulu ebizwa nge-Starlink. Kungumsebenzi we-SpaceX. Ngale phrojekthi, inkampani ifuna ukufaka i-orbit Iziphuphutheki ezingama-4.425 ezizonikezela nge-inthanethi ebanzi ye-inthanethi emhlabeni wonke. Kungumsebenzi ofisa ukuvelela, ogcine uvunyelwe yiFederal Communications Commission yase-United States (FCC).
Ngemuva kweminyaka yokuhlela nokubonga kutshalo-mali olukhulu olufana nolwe-Google, kubonakala sengathi iStarlink iya iba ngokoqobo kancane kancane. Njengoba iphrojekthi isigunyaziwe ekugcineni. Lokhu kusho ukuthi u-Elon Musk kuzofanele ehlele ebhizinisini. Ngoba i-FCC ibeke umnqamulajuqu.
I-FCC ibuyekeze iphrojekthi yomsunguli weTesla ne-SpaceX. Ekugcineni, bayinikeze ilayisense engabeka ngayo iziphuphutheki ezingama-4.425 emzileni. Ngenxa yabo, i-Intanethi izonikezwa ngejubane le-gigabit, nge-latency ephezulu ye-25 ms. Yize izinhlelo zakuqala bekungezokuthi i-Starlink ibe nesamba seziphuphutheki eziyi-12.000.
Kepha ekugcineni imvume ingatholwa kuphela ngama-4.425. Zonke zizoxhunywa futhi zizoba nemvamisa efanayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, babeke umnqamulajuqu. Njengoba iFCC ikutshele lokho okungenani ama-50% kumele abe se-orbit futhi asebenze ngokujwayelekile ngaphambi kukaMashi 29, 2024.
Uma kwenzeka usuku ludlulile futhi lokhu kungagcwalisekanga, ilayisense yakho izokhishwa. Ngakho-ke u-Elon Musk uneminyaka eyisithupha yokuthi i-Starlink isebenze ngokugcwele. Inselelo okuyiyona asebevele besebenzela kuyo i-SpaceX. Okungenani kufanele.
I-FCC iphinde yacela u-Elon Musk ngohlelo oluningiliziwe lwenkunkuma yasemkhathini.. Njengoba kufanele wazi ukuthi kuzokwenzekani ngakunye kwalezi ziphuphutheki lapho zifinyelela ekupheleni kwempilo yazo ewusizo. Umbiko kulindeleke ukuthi uhanjiswe kungekudala.
