Using his company SpaceX, Musk has plans to launch around 12,000 Starlink satellites over the next few years. Starlink satellites number at around 10 or so objects that move in a line across the sky. But as to the second query: those aren't aliens. There's still many questions that remain over what the military was targeted when it downed an unidentified flying object floating 20,000 feet above Lake Huron.

Cruisers will also find the superfast Starlink service on Carnival Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Silversea, Hurtigruten, SeaDream Yacht Club, American Cruise Lines and American Queen Voyages. Because Starlink is not a global service yet, some itineraries will not be able to offer it. The Starlink service will be available on select Windstar voyages where the service is active.

Windstar Cruises became one of the latest lines to offer Starlink's high-speed broadband satellite Internet service.

'When the ships are inside the service area, faster speeds will alleviate much of the frustration felt at peak use times.' Wind Spirit will activate the new technology as soon as it’s available in French Polynesia. Currently, all Windstar Cruises use geostationary satellite service, Anuvu, for Internet services.

Starlink is the world’s first and largest satellite constellation with a low Earth orbit using lasers to communicate further away from ground-based stations. “The addition of high-speed internet service with our current geostationary satellite service will enable guests to stay connected to family and friends.” “I am thrilled to be working with Anuvu and Starlink to offer our guests the latest in satellite technology,” Windstar technology director Gregg Wagner said. Starlink will be available on select voyages where the service is active, as not all global destinations are available.

Former NASA Astronaut Scott Kelly asked Elon Musk to fully restore Starlink in Ukraine after SpaceX banned it for drone use.

SpaceX's COO [Gwynne Shotwell](https://www.businessinsider.com/spacex-starlink-internet-never-intended-weaponized-ukraine-war-gwynne-shotwell-2023-2) said Wednesday the company never intended for Starlink to be "weaponized" in the war "but the Ukrainians have leveraged it in ways that were unintentional and not part of any agreement." [The Times of London](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/specialist-drone-unit-picks-off-invading-forces-as-they-sleep-zlx3dj7bb) reported in March 2022 that a Ukrainian drone unit was using Starlink to help destroy Russian tanks and trucks at night.
