T-Mobile partners with SpaceX in effort to end cellphone dead zones
wapoSEP 2022
With over half a million square miles of the US untouched by cell service this partnership marks a turning point. This new connection won't be reliant on old technology like cell towers or underground cable networks and may pave the way to future partnerships that could see worldwide connection.
While this is exciting news, it's too early to start celebrating. Starlink itself is still a new service and SpaceX has yet to demonstrate that it can deliver on its promise. It remains to be seen how far this partnership will reach.
