I think your altitude figure is off by ~2x. "The satellites successfully reached their operational altitude of 340 miles (550 kilometers)" according to this: https://www.space.com/spacex-starlink-satellites.html

I found this https://www.reddit.com/r/Starlink/comments/i9w09n/list_of_co... It's pretty good for far remote regions like Alaska. Fibre channel will be much more costly with comparable RTT.
Neat, thanks!
