This is just standard BGP peering over route servers. It is not BGP over
your starlink satellite service, you need to have connectivity to an
appropriate IXP.

It tells you to use Peering dB to find the appropriate locations -
https://www.peeringdb.com/net/18747

So if you connect to one of the IXPs linked on that page you can peer with
Starlink, just like another BGP network that does public peering over
routes.

The IXPs may have local data on who has been peering over the route
servers.
