Starlink Coverage Map — Global Speed & Availability Heatmap
Real-time global performance tracking and regional capacity heatmap.
Legend
Congestion Insight
Eastern Seaboard (US) is seeing increased latency between 19:00 - 22:00 UTC due to high subscriber density in cells 84, 102, and 109.
Upcoming Launches
Starlink Group 6-24 scheduled for Wednesday will increase orbital density over the South Pacific, expected +15% capacity boost.

How the Starlink coverage map works
The map provides an illustrative coverage overview based on Starlink's published availability zones. Each region is color-coded to reflect its current service status: cyan for fully available, orange for capacity-limited or waitlisted, and grey for planned but not yet launched.
The sidebar shows country-level speed data from our database and links to detailed per-country speed pages. Colored zones give you an at-a-glance read on where Starlink service is available before you order.
For real-time satellite tracking, see starlink.sx which displays live orbital positions of all Starlink satellites. For detailed community-reported speed data by region, visit starlinkstatus.space which aggregates user speed tests every 15 minutes. Starlink's official availability checker at starlink.com shows whether service is available, waitlisted, or coming soon at any address.
Understanding the coverage data
Performance rankings: The sidebar shows the fastest countries by median download speed. Rankings shift as SpaceX activates new ground stations and launches additional satellite shells. A country ranking high today may move if subscriber growth outpaces capacity additions.
Congestion insights: The map highlights cells experiencing above-average latency during peak hours (typically 7-11 PM local time). If your area shows consistent orange, expect slower evening speeds — consider pairing this data with the country speed page for detailed percentile breakdowns.
Upcoming launches: Scheduled Starlink missions are noted in the sidebar. Each new shell deployment typically adds 10-20% capacity to the regions it covers, which can meaningfully reduce congestion within weeks of activation.
Frequently asked questions
Is Starlink available in my country?+
Starlink is currently active in over 70 countries and continues expanding. The coverage map shows an illustrative overview based on Starlink's published availability zones — cyan areas have full service, orange indicates capacity-limited zones where new orders may be waitlisted, and grey areas are planned but not yet launched.
Why does Starlink speed vary by region?+
Speed depends primarily on how many subscribers share the same satellite capacity overhead. Densely populated cells (like suburban US or UK neighborhoods) see more evening congestion than rural cells in places like Mongolia or Malawi. Ground station proximity, local weather patterns, and the number of active satellites in the orbital shell above your latitude all play a role too.
What do the heatmap colors mean?+
Cyan/blue zones represent areas where Starlink service is fully available with capacity for new subscribers. Orange zones mark regions where subscriber density is higher and new orders may be waitlisted. Grey zones indicate planned coverage areas that are not yet active.
How often is the map data updated?+
The coverage zones are based on Starlink's published availability data and are updated periodically as SpaceX announces new country launches and cell activations. The map provides an illustrative overview of where Starlink service is available, waitlisted, or planned.
Can I check Starlink coverage for a specific address?+
Yes. Use the search bar at the top of the map and enter a city name or GPS coordinates. The map will center on that location and show the local coverage status based on Starlink's published availability zones. The most reliable way to check is directly at starlink.com — enter your address and you'll see if service is available, waitlisted, or 'coming soon' with an estimated date.
What is the difference between this map and the official Starlink availability map?+
The official Starlink site tells you whether you can place an order. This map provides an at-a-glance visual overview of global coverage zones, country-level speed data from our database, and links to detailed per-country speed pages so you can research performance before you buy.
How many Starlink satellites are in orbit?+
As of 2026, SpaceX has launched over 6,000 Starlink satellites, with roughly 4,000+ operational in orbit. You can track them in real-time at findstarlink.com or starlink.sx, which show live orbital positions and upcoming visible passes for your location.
