SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said the first initiative in early 2015, a time when Google decided to invest in the company about $ 1 billion. Then Elon Musk has estimated that the project will take at least 5 years and cost around $ 10 billion.
To attract Google to join the project is not too difficult because the giants are interested in easy access of all people to the internet and satellite networks can impact positively on the performance that is the ambition.
However, not clear what the hidden purpose behind the creation of a new network. Perhaps this idea is part of a larger adventure boss Elon Musk?
