The Falcon 9 was set to launch Starlink satellites on Sunday, but the latter was scrubbed, “to complete data reviews.” The backup launch opportunity was set for Monday at 6:34pm PST/9:34pm EST, but that has been changed to tomorrow at 6:13pm PST/9:13 EST.
Starlink internet is currently in beta in the United States and Canada, and so far early reviews for those living in rural areas have praised the service for its fast download speeds and low latency, compared to traditional satellite internet.
