There is wonderful news for users of ultrafast broadband services as SpaceX has officially begun a planned initiative to enhance space safety. The company is moving approximately 4,400 of its Starlink satellites to a lower orbit, shifting their altitude from around 550km down to 480km. This positive step is scheduled to take place throughout 2026 and is designed to ensure the continued reliability and security of the global network.
Progress is already well underway! So far, 652 satellites have successfully completed their orbit lowering, with another 972 currently on their way down. This "significant reconfiguration" is a proactive measure focused on increasing space safety as orbital space becomes more populated. With nearly 10,000 satellites currently operating in Low Earth Orbit, this careful adjustment demonstrates a strong commitment to responsible space management.
For our readers in the United Kingdom, the service continues to grow and improve. As of July 2025, there were 110,000 customers in the UK, a fantastic increase from the 87,000 recorded the previous year. These users are enjoying ultrafast connectivity, particularly in rural areas where access has historically been challenging. Residential customers can access unlimited data plans starting from £35 a month, offering speeds of up to 100Mbps with low latency connectivity.
The global network is also thriving, having reached 9 million customers worldwide by the end of 2025. Whether you are looking for standard residential packages or specific options for roaming users, there are flexible choices available to suit different needs.
