SpaceX Aims At Starlink Beta Launch This Summer

Hawthorne-based SpaceX has told users who have expressed interest in becoming a beta tester for the company's Starlink satellite Internet service that it hopes to launch a beta of its service sometime this summer. The company has started asking people for their potential "service address" for its high bandwidth Internet service, which will be provided by a network of thousands of low earth orbit (LEO) satellites. SpaceX has been launching hundres of its satellites into space--to date, 540--as it begins to build out its consteallation of satellites.
