Bloomberg reports that Starlink is in talks with several airlines about its in-flight broadband Internet access services.
Starlink currently produces six satellites a week at its assembly site near Seattle. These devices in orbit will provide Internet even to the most remote corners of the planet. In addition, they will be able to provide connectivity on a moving object: airplanes, ships, cars, etc.
Interestingly, SpaceX founder Elon Musk announced yesterday that the company could go bankrupt if it fails to fix production problems with its Raptor engines.
