Network of Internet Microsatellites

jos · June 27, 2015

OneWeb, which is a London-based company working to build a satellite network for global broadband connectivity just raised a whopping $500 million from investors including Coca-Cola, Virgin Group, Airbus, and others. The company added that it now plans to building a total of 900 "microsatellites" as part of a joint project with Airbus Defense and Space. It has also acquired 65 commercial rockets (the "largest commercial rocket acquisition") from both the French company Arianespace and Virgin Galactic. Hope the service will be free.

wow umm ok this is confusing

other companies are doing the same thing

instead of every one doing his own thing they need to have a standard so they can share services kinda like what telecoms do with each other

Don't we just have enough of these startups with big companies behind them that promise free wi-fi to everyone and never really deliver shit? I will just ignore any of them, until I see some fucking results...

It will happen when Google gets behind it.
