SpaceX hits 90,000 subscribers across 12 countries using Starlink satellite internet service

SpaceX reports a new record of ~90,000 Starlink satellite internet subscribers, according to CNBC.

As reporter Michael Sheetz notes, that’s a 20,000 subscriber increase from June when SpaceX CEO Elon Musk announced 69,420 subscribers.
