SpaceX's (SPCX) goal of turning its Starlink service into a major US mobile carrier is one step closer to becoming a reality. On Wednesday, Qualcomm (QCOM) announced that SpaceX has selected its Dragonwing Cellular Infrastructure platforms to power Starlink Mobile's nationwide terrestrial 5G cellular network. Starlink already has the largest satellite-based network, and the ground-based stations will allow it to better compete with AT&T (T), T-Mobile (TMUS), and Verizon (VZ). Last month, the company announced an agreement to purchase licenses for 800 MHz spectrum.FILE PHOTO: The silhouette of Elon Musk and Starlink logo are seen in this illustration taken June 11, 2026.
