  • FCC clears SpaceX to upgrade Starlink with gigabit speeds
    January 10, 2026, 6:54 AM EST. The Federal Communications Commission approved a partial grant enabling SpaceX to operate about 7,500 additional Starlink satellites, lifting the total in orbit to over 19,000. The decision also allows the company to use more radio bands at higher power limits, a move designed to boost data throughput toward gigabit speeds for customers. The approval underscores the ongoing push to scale mega-constellations and expand nationwide satellite broadband, despite policy and space-safety questions.
