The first stage successfully landed on a droneship in the Pacific Ocean. This was the fourth successful launch and landing of the reusable booster.
Starlink is a space-based system that SpaceX has been developing for many years. It is a system that can provide internet even in such places where internet has not been able to reach through cable till date. There are many such remote areas in the world where providing internet connection is not an easy task at present. SpaceX’s goal is to create a network through satellites that is accessible everywhere.

These satellites revolve around the Earth at an altitude of 340 miles (550 km). Through these the company provides internet services on earth.
