The McMurdo Station at Antartica has nearly 1,000 people living and working there during the summer and they already have satellite internet which is not reliable in rough conditions.
There is currently a 17 Mbps link for everone, according to the United States Antarctic Programme.
But with Starlink, the internet service will be better and not patchy like earlier.
After its race with OneWeb<\/a> to cover the North Pole and other Arctic areas with satellite internet, SpaceX has made it to the other extreme: the National Science Foundation (or NSF) is testing out one of its Starlink terminals at McMurdo Station in Antarctica. The NSF says the increased bandwidth will help scientists working on the remote continent near the South Pole.
\"NSF-supported USAP scientists in #Antarctica are over the moon! Starlink is testing polar service with a newly deployed user terminal at McMurdo Station, increasing bandwidth and connectivity for science support,\" the NSF said in a tweet.
The McMurdo Station blocks scientists from using Netflix and video calls, with the exception of Skype<\/a> or FaceTime sessions once a week at a public kiosk or mission-critical communications, reports The Verge.
Starlink can offer speed around 50-200 Mbps.
\"Starlink is now on all seven continents! In such a remote location like Antarctica, this capability is enabled by Starlink's space laser network,\" tweeted Starlink.
Earlier this month, SpaceX successfully deployed 51 more Starlink satellites<\/a> in space, completing its 40th mission so far this year.
Musk recently said that SpaceX is launching Starlink satellites nearly every five days now and plans to launch 100 orbital missions in 2023.
Royal Caribbean Group recently became the first in the global cruise industry to adopt SpaceX Starlink's high-speed, low-latency Internet services for a better onboard experience for guests and crew.

在南极洲麦克默多站近1000人生活和工作在夏季,他们已经有了卫星网络在恶劣的环境中是不可靠的。
目前17 Mbps链接大家,根据美国南极计划。
但是对于我们,互联网服务会更好,而不是不喜欢。
比赛后,OneWeb覆盖北极和其他北极地区的卫星网络,SpaceX已经来到了另一个极端:美国国家科学基金会(NSF)是测试我们的终端在南极洲麦克默多站。NSF说增加的带宽将帮助科学家致力于远程大陆在南极附近。
“NSF-supported必备科学家在南极洲#在月亮!我们正在测试极新部署的服务用户终端在麦克默多站,增加带宽和连接对科学的支持,“NSF在推特说。
麦克默多站阻止科学家使用Netflix和视频通话,除了Skype或FaceTime会话一周一次在公开亭或关键任务通信,报告边缘。
我们可以提供速度大约50 - 200 Mbps。
“我们现在在所有七大洲!在这样一个远程位置像南极洲,这种能力是通过我们的太空激光网络,“推我们。
本月早些时候,SpaceX成功部署51我们的卫星在太空中,完成了40任务今年迄今为止。
麝香最近表示,SpaceX是我们卫星发射几乎每五天了,2023年计划100年发射轨道任务。
皇家加勒比集团最近成为第一个全球邮轮行业采用SpaceX我们的高速、低延迟的互联网服务为客人更好的船上体验和船员。
