Starlink users reported<\/a> they couldn\u2019t connect<\/a> to SpaceX\u2019s satellite internet service for a few hours on Thursday afternoon before service was eventually restored. Widespread Starlink outages, like the ones we reported on in 2022 and 2023, have been rare, and this appears to be the first one in 2025. <\/p>\n

The outage began around 3:15PM ET or so, with users receiving error messages saying there is \u201cno healthy upstream.\u201d Starlink posted a message on X<\/a> at 4:05PM ET: \u201cStarlink is currently in a network outage and we are actively implementing a solution. We appreciate your patience, we\u2019ll share an update once this issue is resolved.\u201d <\/p>\n

At 6:23PM ET, Starlink engineering VP Michael Nicolls followed that up with a message saying that after a 2.5-hour outage, the network has \u201cmostly recovered.\u201d \u201cThe outage was due to failure of key internal software services that operate the core network,\u201d writes Nicolls, without going into specific detail. <\/p>\n

According to The Kyiv Independent<\/a><\/em>, the outage affected Ukrainian troops who rely on Starlink terminals, citing a Telegram message from the military<\/a> saying Starlink is down across the entire front. The military now says its connections are back online after going down for about 150 minutes, \u201cthe longest in the war.\u201d<\/p>\n

T-Mobile just opened its Starlink-powered T-Satellite messaging service<\/a> to everyone yesterday, but we haven\u2019t seen any updates on its status. During the outage, the global connectivity trackers at NetBlocks reported<\/a> that overall Starlink connectivity dropped to \u201c16 percent of ordinary levels.\u201d<\/p>\n

Starlink has now mostly recovered from the network outage, which lasted approximately 2.5 hours. \u00a0The outage was due to failure of key internal software services that operate the core network. \u00a0We apologize for the temporary disruption in our service; we are deeply committed to\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/ffFYM1Z7tD<\/a><\/p>\n
