Elon Musk announced that Starlink services will remain free in regions affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton for the remainder of 2024. This decision follows Starlink’s critical role in providing communication support during the hurricanes, helping both emergency operations and impacted residents.
Starlink Extends Free Services to Hurricane-Affected Areas, Expanding Offerings to Include Cellular Support
Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, declared over the weekend that Starlink services will remain free in the regions impacted by Hurricane Helene and Milton for the remainder of 2024.
Musk announced earlier this month that Starlink would offer complimentary service for 30 days in the areas affected by Hurricane Helene.
Starlink was implemented by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to facilitate communication at its Emergency Operations Centre and ensure government continuity in North Carolina. In the interim, Musk conversed with former President Donald Trump regarding the operation of Starlink services for the individuals impacted by Hurricane Helene.
Since its assistance with Hurricane Helene, SpaceX has expanded its offerings beyond the provision of Starlink internet service. Additionally, it has initiated the provision of cellular services in North Carolina and the regions impacted by Hurricane Milton.
SpaceX and T-Mobile Gain FCC Approval to Expand Starlink Cellular Services in Hurricane-Hit Regions
SpaceX and T-Mobile submitted a request for Special Temporary Authority from the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to deliver Starlink Direct-to-Cellular (also known as Starlink Cellular) to regions affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. The FCC approved the companies' request.
US President Joseph Biden visited Florida for the second time this month on October 13 to assess the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. Although the storm experienced a significant decline before its arrival, it caused considerable damage to the regions in its path. The flooding of entire neighborhoods, as reported by USA Today, resulted in the destruction of residences and the deaths of at least 17 individuals.
“This is a team effort, folks,” President Biden said during his latest visit to Florida. “You made a big difference and have saved lives. But there’s much more to do. And we’re going to do everything we can to get power back in your home, not only helping you recover, but to help you build back stronger.
