Starlink and alike have attracted a lot of attention recently, however, the inner workings of these low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite networks are still largely unknown. This talk presents an ongoing measurement campaign focusing on Starlink and OneWeb on roofs, vehicles, vessels and airplanes, including their satellite access networks, gateway and point-of-presence structures, and backbone and Internet connections, revealing insights applicable to other LEO satellite providers. It also highlights the challenges and research opportunities of the integrated space-air-ground-aqua network envisioned by 6G mobile communication systems and calls for a concerted community effort from practical and experimentation aspects.
