Elon Musk wants to bring in SpaceX technology and the Amazonas government gives the green light

The richest man in the world wants to come to the country to announce Starlink’s space operations

The Amazonas government maintains contact with the company of billionaire Elon Musk, owner of SpaceX, Tesla and Twitter, who have expressed interest in starting Starlink operations in the state.

Starlink is a subsidiary of the SpaceX group, which has revolutionized spaceflight, with reusing rockets.

Governor Wilson thanked Lima Mask for his interest in investing in the Amazon region and highlighted the importance of investing.

In addition to not abandoning the jobs created at ZFM, we continue to work to attract new investments. Elon Musk has demonstrated an interest in bringing in investments here and we will work to further this business. Come and discover the Amazon. “Amazon is calling you,” said the governor.

Last month, the governor also invited Amazon business magnate Jeff Bezos to invest in the Amazon region.

According to a letter sent to the State Secretariat for Economic Development, Science, Technology and Innovation (Sedecti), Starlink has informed that it intends to start providing broadband services to customers in Brazil.

The Minister of Economic Development, Science, Technology and Innovation (Sedecti), Angelus Figueira, explained that the country is working to respond to Starlink’s request. “Just yesterday we had a video conference with company representatives in New York, and we’re having conversations,” he said.

Technique

Starlink uses advanced satellites in low orbits and states that they allow video calls, streaming and other activities at speeds of up to 200 MB/s.

Invoices and taxes

With an office in Brazil, Starlink estimates revenue at US$7.5 million. In the first year, the number of customers is expected to exceed 60 thousand, mainly from southern and southeastern states.

As a return to the state, the tax collection on the circulation of goods and services (ICMS) at the beginning of the process may reach 97 million Rls.
