Billionaire businessman Elon Musk’s Starlink, the satellite unit of SpaceX, is back up after an outage that affected thousands of users on Tuesday.
In a post on ‘X’, the company said “The network issue has been fully resolved.”
According to Reuters, outage tracking website Downdetector.com reported that Starlink’s services were down about an hour earlier today, affecting 41,393 users.
SpaceX’s Starlink, which owns around 60 per cent of the roughly 7,500 satellites orbiting Earth, is dominant in the satellite internet sphere.
Sri Lanka is also exploring the implementation of Starlink, with President Ranil Wickremesinghe having met with Billionaire businessman Elon Musk at the 10th World Water Forum High-Level Meeting in Indonesia, recently.
It was reported that the discussion focused on implementing Starlink in Sri Lanka and fast-tracking the application process to connect Sri Lanka with the global Starlink network. (Newswire)
