When will Starlink come to Turkey and what will be the price?

Developed to provide fast internet access all over the world, Starlink in more than 54 countries It has more than 1 million active users.

Changing the course of the Ukrainian war and for supporting Elon Musk’s search and rescue efforts after the February 6 earthquakes Giving exclusive access to Turkey When will Starlink come to Turkey?

First of all, let’s make this clear: What is the Starlink project?

Starlink travels around our planet through thousands of orbiting satellites. organised And fast An internet service that can provide the internet.

The project is also comparable to fiber cables running under seas and oceans. cannot be sabotaged And safe It aims to provide internet streaming.

from the earth At an altitude of 550 kilometers As long as satellites placed in close orbit are not hit for reasons such as war, it seems that this goal will be achieved.

Within the scope of the project, until now more than 3580 satellite was sent. Number of satellites targeted 12 thousand However, over time SpaceX will increase this number. up to 42 thousand It is alleged that he may decide to remove it.

When will Starlink come to Turkey, how much will it cost?

Starlink, which was predicted to come to our country in 2022 years ago but did not come, in 2024 It is expected to arrive in Turkey at full capacity.

Global service of the service, in the countries served unlimited data And 50-500Mbps monthly within internet speed 200 holding. Unless the price is changed, the service will be paid monthly at the current exchange rate in Turkey. about 3800 Turkish Liras can hold.

In addition, the $499 tool kit fee is averaged at the current rate. 9500 Turkish Lira retention is also possible.

The project has pros as well as cons. What is the internet connection speed provided by the highly praised Starlink?

Despite its claim to provide fast internet, Starlink cannot compete with fiber internet, which is twice as fast as itself. fiber internet up to 1000 Mbps while providing speed, Starlink is currently the most to 500 Mbps it can come out.

In case of entering our market, Starlink will pay monthly fees if no price changes are made. With a fee of $200 It may not affect the market much.

Although the project covers the entire planet, the full capacity of the service is only at the request and permission of the states and Starlink does not have a full capacity service permit in Turkey yet.

If cables are not needed, how does Starlink work?​

The working logic of the project is not just about satellites and launching satellites. In order for satellites to be functional, there must be transceivers on Earth to capture signals. For this usually base stations And Wi-Fi We use similar technologies.

But Starlink, interestingly, has base stations and technologies like Wi-Fi. it doesn’t need it. whole system, In tool kits for $499 easy to transport and install bowls thanks to it works.

This dish is small compared to base stations takes up less space as well as mass production And makes it easier to transport.

When you buy this tool kit being sent and you can connect to the internet thanks to the terminal inside.

Let’s say he finally came to Turkey and the state gave the green light. Where can we buy Starlink?

When Starlink arrives in Turkey, SpaceX will most likely stock their tool kits. from their site or its extensions will be offered for sale.

In other words, when it enters the market order that can be And can be delivered to the address. As a matter of fact, it is currently possible to receive the tool kit by ordering abroad.

Now let’s come to the international legal debates caused by the project.

Starlink continues to be a topic of discussion internationally for the following reasons:

• Some countries do not want a foreign company to be able to fly satellites over their own country as they wish. Because Starlink is available anywhere in the world. unauthorized the internet can provide.
• Some countries, such as the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation, are uncomfortable with the possibility that a US-based private company could monitor their territory more closely. In other words, for spying They are worried about their use.
• Astronomers are talking about the possibility of sending too many satellites into space pollution and the possibility that the satellites could collide and create debris.

The most prominent of the concerns we have mentioned is the possible space accidents that may occur due to satellites.

Project into orbit 12 thousand or 42 thousand Considering that it will be completed with the sending of satellites, it is very likely that these satellites will cover the sky above us.

If one or more of these satellites go out of control or have an accident, collide with other satellites and domino effect also has the potential to create As the number of satellites in space increases, the probability of chain satellite accidents and their debris falling on us increases.

Electric vehicles produced by Elon Musk’s other company, Tesla, are frequently malfunctions and ignition Considering this, the possibility of the same thing happening with the Starlink project is a subject that is constantly mentioned.
