I think you, and others, might just be misinterpreting the point of the map. My take is that it is to help people look for the satellites. A 60 degree above the horizon cutoff isn't unreasonable, and making the circles much larger would clutter the map.
I find it helpful, anyway. (And to me, at least, it is more helpful than a hypothetical coverage map, since I can't get Starlink internet now.)
- bigtones 6y agoNo it's not being misinterpreted, the parent comment is right - the website author has a negative biased agenda against Starlink and Elon Musk, as evidenced from the website's own About page: * No evidence a working starlink network can offer lower latency, or lower prices, than terrestial * Impact on earth based telescopes has not been discussed * Starlink is a play for pentagon funding to keep SpaceX launch schedule busy?
- shaklee3 6y agoHow is this biased: "No evidence a working starlink network can offer lower latency, or lower prices, than terrestial"? The FCC themselves don't believe the 100ms, and the price nobody in the industry thinks will be affordable since they haven't released any info about their user antenna.
