- cagenut 7y agothis guy made an excellent youtube video modeling and visualizing the satellite orbits, the network routing paths across them, and the resulting latencies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEIUdMiColU&t=4m https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEIUdMiColU&t=4m NYC to London on the current internet is 76ms, he shows it across starlink's updated plans as working out to around 46ms. Later in the description he points out a mistake in his own math and says that starlink paths should be 8.7% faster than the video shows, so really jfk<->lhr ~ 42ms.
