Deep-water drilling is often a $10 million a day, mission-critical operation. If a signal drops, and an oil rig engineer can’t track their machinery for more than a few seconds, […]

In 2017, when dozens of commercial airlines adopted next-generation, satellite-based in-flight Wi-Fi service across their fleets, high-speed satellite communications were pretty limited to a single orbit: GEO. Six years later, […]

Issues such as how to manage space debris floating in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) and securing cooperation among multiple government entities are at the forefront of the discussion around space sustainability. […]

Within an impressively short three years, SpaceX has launched more than 4,000 satellites for its Starlink satellite network, blanketing Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) with a constellation that now serves 1.5 million-plus […]

Most fires don’t start as big explosions, but as small, smoldering hazes that look like yellowish pillows of smoke. It can take between one and several hours for a flame […]

The satellite industry must figure out how multiple stakeholders can work together to manage space and mitigate debris while addressing concerns such as lack of trust or the presence of […]

The surge in demand for smallsat launch raises a number of questions: What’s driving the growth? How do industries that want to get into Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) find the right […]
