Global internet traffic is estimated to be 3 yottabytes per day. So Starlink is now carrying one of out every 77 million parts of worldwide traffic. Wow, that's small.
100Gbps connection per link.
Assuming 50Mbps per customer per laser link: 2000 people per laser link
I wonder how that compares to the number of people who can connect to the same satellite at one time?

I think they plan to drastically increase the laser bandwidth. This is a new tech, that they just started using.
how are lasers operating in space i thought it would disperse quickly or attenuate greatly at high frequencies or is it due to space being a vacuum thanks just asking
= 42 PB/day
Yeah but that doesn't show the true scale of it. I can't tell you how many GBs that is off the top of my head. Idk I think it works.
Thanks, I was about to rant on this
With the laser links operational, Starlink antennas will probably soon be installed on practically all commercial airplanes and ships.
