Wycliffe Associates are to use Starlink to improve connectivity with isolated Bible translators.

The Bible translation organisation hope that the SpaceX satellite internet provider, which provides broadband to over 100 countries and aims to eventually provide global broadband, will enable their translators to access the internet at high speeds - and transform the capabilities of their work in the world’s remotest locations.

It is hoped that the Starlink system will enable national translators to participate in video calls from remote locations around the world.
