SpaceX Launches Pricey Maritime Internet Service

Hawthorne-based SpaceX has launched a new, roving Internet service specifically for the maritime market--albeit, at a steep price--following its approval to offer up its service on moving vehicles by the FCC. The new Starlink Maritime service costs $5000 a month, plus $10,000 in hardware costs for high speed Internet. The service looks to be similar to the SpaceX RV offering, just at a much higher price--likely tailored to the maritime market's higher budgets.
