New Delhi/Global Desk — The race for space-based internet and communication services has intensified dramatically. In a major technological leap, China has successfully conducted a live video call between the North and South Poles using advanced satellites. This remarkable feat is being viewed as a direct and aggressive challenge to American billionaire Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet network, which has been expanding its global footprint rapidly.
According to reports, China utilized its cutting-edge satellite constellation to achieve seamless data transmission across the Earth's extreme poles, where extreme weather and geographical hurdles traditionally disrupt communication. This demonstration underscores Beijing's growing prowess in orbital technology and space communications, setting the stage for a fierce rivalry in the global satellite internet market.
