The Starlink project , developed by Elon Musk , aims to bring satellite internet to Latin America . In fact, on this very day it received a license from the National Communications Entity ( Enacom ) to begin operations in Argentina . This was determined in the legislation already announced in the official gazette in December 2020.
To achieve connectivity and Internet access in places of more than 42 thousand satellites that would orbit around the Earth. This initiative is already being tested and tried in the United States and Canada , where it operates at a monthly price of 99 dollars plus the 499 dollars of the installation equipment, but it seeks to expand to Latin America, taking its first official steps in Chile and Argentina.
Before starting operations, Elon Musk 's company must ensure the "proper allocation of the frequency bands for the operation of the Starlink system ." It must also complete the process of completing the international coordination and notification of the satellite system.
Starlink will likely land first in Chile, as paperwork has already been prepared cash app database for the construction of seven ground stations, one of these in Santiago, the capital of the South American country, and the remaining six in the south of the country. It is expected to operate supported by SpaceX satellites .

According to resolution 1291/2020, announced at the end of December in the Official Gazette, it approves Musk's company "for the provision of Information and Communications Technology Services, whether fixed or mobile, wired or wireless, national or international, with or without its own infrastructure."
According to the document, the State is requesting that the company registered under the name Tibro Netherlands comply with a set of conditions before beginning operations, including “the proper allocation of the operating frequency bands of the Starlink system,” the conclusion of the “process of international coordination and notification of the satellite system,” and “the coordination of said satellite system with the satellite networks” of Argentina.
It is worth mentioning that the resolution warns that the license "does not presuppose the obligation of the State to guarantee the availability of radio spectrum frequencies and/or numbering and signaling resources for the provision of the registered service."
