SpaceX is among several companies interested in providing broadband internet coverage worldwide, especially in areas where it costs too much or is unreliable. Others include OneWeb and Jeff Bezos’ Amazon.

    “space maybe the final frontier but it’s made in a hollywood basement” Red Hot Chilli Peppers, from their 1999 album. Californication. Truth in lyrics. This song was given to them to sing by the occult elite just like all the others. They are just puppets. All our communication is here on earth. Space does not exist. Nasa and space x are here to deceive the masses. They are hiding flat earth which is our home. We live under a dome and the sun moon and stars are inside of it. That is why we can see them and that’s is why they give light upon the earth. But the masses cannot grasp that reality because they have been brainwashed and dumb down by the mainstream media hollywood, the american and all world governments and the school text books. 100%

    Broadband internet should be free for everyone, everyone should be able to connect to the internet from anywhere in the world for free even in the middle of the ocean or on top of the highest mountain or out in the desert. Unfortunately that will not happen because large internet providers bribe politicians to stop it, they make billions from paying customers. The technology is there to do it already.

      Who is going to pay for that? The technology is there but that technology costs a lot.
