Starlink expands coverage over US

SpaceX’s Starlink service has expanded availability over the US. Heavy demand in some parts of the US has meant that Starlink was severely limiting new subscribers owing to limited bandwidth.
However, with almost 1,000 new broadband satellites launched over the past few months, and the latest full Version 2 craft now being launched with four-times the capacity on each satellite the whole continental US is now taking orders.
It is a similar situation in South America where Brazil is fully open for business.
Recent positive news that India and Turkey are likely to be open for business once licencing regulations are met, means that significant new territorial expansion is available to Starlink.
The whole of Western Europe is also open for business, except for Serbia, Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo and Montenegro.
