Original: SpaceX’s next frontier: Mobile phone service
SpaceX is moving beyond rocket launches and satellite internet into mobile phone service, using its Starlink satellites to connect standard cellphones directly. The move puts the company in competition with traditional telecom carriers and could expand coverage to remote areas without ground infrastructure. It is the latest sign of Elon Musk's company broadening its ambitions in the telecommunications market.
Why now: SpaceX's expansion from satellite internet into direct mobile phone service is a notable new development in the telecom and space industries.
