The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) granted permission for SpaceX and T-Mobile to operate Starlink Direct-to-Cellular (aka Starlink Cellular) over areas in Hurricane Milton’s projected path.

SpaceX and T-Mobile temporarily deployed Starlink Direct-to-Cellular (aka Starlink Cellular) to help Hurricane Helene recovery efforts in affected areas.

 Starlink has announced its Hurricane Helene Relief program, which offers 30 days of free internet connectivity to areas affected by the Category 4 storm.

Former President Donald Trump says he coordinated with Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to get Starlink internet to areas that were impacted by Hurricane Helene.

Starlink Cellular hasn’t launched yet, but it seems to be heading in the right direction after the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted to open up more spectrum to non-geostationary satellite operators (NGSO). The FCC’s new rule allows services like Starlink Cellular to improve broadband speeds in the United States.
