SpaceX says it’s made progress to drive down Starlink’s latency by over 30% for US subscribers, citing improvements implemented over the past month.

On Friday, the company published a report that sheds light on SpaceX’s ongoing effort to one day bring the latency rates down to under 20 milliseconds.

“In the United States alone, we reduced median latency by more than 30%, from 48.5ms to 33ms during hours of peak usage,” the company wrote. “Worst-case peak hour latency (p99) has dropped by over 60%, from over 150ms to less than 65ms.”
