That spot over Atlanta is just as bright in the night sky outside as it is on that map. It’s never pitch dark. Kind of odd when I walk the dog at 2:AM.

My rural power company offers cable, phone and internet. 200 mbps for $50, and a gig for $80.00. No data limits. Cable $75 and up for different packages.Is it delivered through the power line?

As of this week, appx. 360 v1 Starlink satellites are orbited. IIRC from past reading, initial basic service will start rolling out the around 1,200 satellite mark, and scale up from there. There’s a Falcon 9 going up every few weeks with 60 more satellites. This will accelerate rapidly if & when the Starship becomes operational, but at this point, that rocket has not yet flown.
Hope this helps.

It’s fiber optic. EPB (Electric Power Board) has it also in Chattanooga. Their website is more informative. https://epb.com/

4052 square miles in my county, not my country, please re read #30. However I was wrong on people, 136,000 not 186,000.

Yes. How has India avoided it to this point? It will wipe out that shithole.
