    "excerpt": "Elon Musk has never been short on making big claims, but the one he made about Starlink at SpaceX's first earnings call as a publicly traded company now takes on special relevance, as the company tries to put Starship into orbit. That rocket is supposed to carry the satellites that would make the claim possible. 'It's not out of the question that, at some point, Starlink will offer most of the world's internet connection, at least in the countries where we have permission to operate, which are the vast majority.' Musk said this at the August conference, and CNBC revisited the phrase on Monday, as SpaceX prepared for Starship's fourteenth test flight. It is the first of these flights whose objective is to reach orbit, and it carries 26 of the new Starlink V3 satellites. In the full passage, according to TechCrunch's transcript, Musk set a deadline: 'You know, less than 10 years.'\n\nIt's not a fantasy disguised as strategy. Starlink is the SpaceX division that pays the bills. In the second quarter, the Connectivity segment brought in 4.3 billion dollars, up 66% from a year earlier, and generated operating income of 1.66 billion. Both the space and AI businesses recorded losses. The number of subscribers doubled, reaching 12 million. CNBC estimates that SpaceX has about 11,000 active satellites in orbit, compared to approximately 650 for Eutelsat OneWeb. According to GeekWire, at...",
