SpaceX's bold plan to deliver worldwide internet with 4,425 satellites

SpaceX has big plans for bringing internet to locations around the world, and it all starts in space. 

The Elon Musk-founded company just filed an application with the Federal Communications Commission that lays out its vision for using thousands of satellites in orbit to beam internet down to the world. 

"The system is designed to provide a wide range of broadband and communications services for residential, commercial, institutional, governmental and professional users worldwide," SpaceX wrote in a supplement to the filing.
