Subject: [Starlink] FCC changes for Starlink
Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2026 17:19:26 -0700 (MST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <q0725pnr-0po3-99so-9279-15824814oon7@ynat.uz> (raw)

https://spaceflightnow.com/2026/01/08/live-coverage-spacex-to-launch-its-falcon-9-rocket-on-midday-starlink-mission-from-cape-canaveral/

approved another 7500 v2 satellites (many will be replacing v1 and v1.5 
satellites)

approved lowering orbits (smaller beam footprint)

approved overlapping beams


This should improve available speeds over time. I'm especially going to be 
interested in what happens with them now being allowed to have overlapping 
beams.
