Elion Musk ..... and satellites for free internet

In light of the continuing Corona crisis that struck all countries of the world, and many countries taking precautionary measures to confront this epidemic, the hours of using the Internet have increased significantly and its importance has increased as many people buy or sell through the Internet to reduce the possibility of disease transmission to them.

Internet experts confirm that using the Internet has become a necessity and is no longer a supplement or luxury due to its increasing importance in light of the outbreak of Corona virus and also because it is closely related to commercial and industrial businesses and marketing them through it.

According to the British newspaper The Guardian, more than half of the world's population use the Internet and that the users' ability to access this service varies greatly according to many factors such as the educational level, the extent of development of the country in which they live, and their financial capabilities .....

Star Link Elion Mask Project

Elion Musk, founder of SpaceX, announced the launch of a space Internet project by satellite that aims to provide the Internet for free to everyone in the world.

Where the South African billionaire adopted a plan to provide high-speed Internet in small sums of money, as he intends to launch 1,600 satellites in low orbit near the Earth, about 550 kilometers from the natural surface of the earth.

These satellites are working to deliver the Internet directly to anywhere in the world with very high speed by means of satellites that aim to reach at the end of the project to 43,000 satellites, and the company has already obtained a license for 30,000 satellites.

The cost of this huge project called Star Link is estimated at 60 billion US dollars, as the cost is divided between 30 billion dollars the cost of the satellites, 25 billion dollars the cost of launching these satellites and 5 billion dollars the cost of ground support.

Free internet for all of the world

In mid-February of 2017, SpaceX launched a new batch of sixty new satellites within the Starlink project. The project aims to cover all parts of the world with Internet service using 42 thousand small satellites, but many parties are concerned about the effects of this large number of devices in space and their negative effects. SpaceX astronomers are accused of disturbing the purity of the sky and spoiling their research for a purely profitable goal in the absence of international laws to control the exploitation of space. The collision of satellites with each other represents a threat to modern technology.

The American website "Digital Trends", which is interested in technology news, stated that the idea depends on operating data networks through hundreds or thousands of small satellites that orbit at heights closer to the Earth than traditional communications satellites. Elon Musk showed a picture of the satellites, through his official account on Twitter platform, placed inside the front of the Falcon 9 rocket, which is supposed to take the spacecraft into orbit.

Elon Musk's Free Internet Initiative; It was not the first of its kind, as Facebook launched, over the past few years, many initiatives to provide free internet in different regions around the world, the most recent of which was during the Mobile World Congress 2018, in Barcelona, to announce its intention to provide free internet to rural areas in all Around the world through a wireless technology called "TerraGraph", which is a technology that not only provides connectivity, but also does so quickly, and works on the same frequency that is being tested by operators for 5G mobile networks.

We, Alameer Media Company, hope that we have succeeded in clarifying this huge project, and we thank you for your time with us.
