As another stage of its beta program rolled out earlier this month, Space Exploration Technologies Corp.'s (SpaceX) Starlink satellite-based internet service has managed to achieve a staggering 190 Mbps in download speed. The speed test was conducted by a beta service user living in North-East Montana, who signed up for the second stage of the beta invites. Montana is one of the earliest regions where SpaceX set up its Earth Stations for communicating with satellites and relaying user data to and from internet servers, and the test comes just as SpaceX prepares for the year's first Starlink launch on Monday.
