World’s richest man’s company is involved in a trial to get isolated areas of the UK connected to the internet.
Elon Musk's satellites are to be part of a UK trial to get high-speed internet to remote homes and companies.
It will test how more than 3,000 low-Earth orbit small satellites can be used to upgrade the internet in "very hard to reach" places around the UK.They are the 12th-Century Rievaulx Abbey in North York Moors National Park, Wasdale Head in the Lake District and within Snowdonia National Park.
"These trials aim to find a solution to the prohibitively high cost of rolling out cables to far-flung locations," she said. "Even though Starlink is still losing money and other companies are getting billions of taxpayer dollars, we'll just keep funding Ukraine government for free," he tweeted.This is the latest announcement in the government's £5bn Project Gigabit initiative, with the ambition of getting rid of the UK's notspots - areas where there is no internet. There are still many more than you may think.
