Researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo have developed an origami inspired foldable antenna for CubeSat satellites that weighs just 64 grams yet in orbit, it deploys to two and a half times its stowed size. The antenna folds away neatly for launch and deploys automatically in space, achieving high gain communications performance from a package small enough to fit in your pocket and could on…

The satellite named PRSC-EO3 was lifted off at 8:15 p.m. (Beijing Time) by a Long March-6 carrier rocket and successfully entered its planned orbit

Elon Musk announced that SpaceX will provide Starlink-based Internet access to internationally recognized aid groups attempting to provide humanitarian aid in Gaza. It will also provide access to groups from the United Nations working in Gaza. He had initially stated that it wasn’t clear who had the authority to coordinate ground links, but no ground station had attempted contact. Gaza lost most …

In a move that could be seen as a partial victory for Amazon’s Kuiper Systems, SpaceX withdrew its proposal for an alternative configuration for the second-generation Starlink satellites. Kuiper Systems filed an objection to SpaceX’s proposals for upgraded Starlink satellites with the FCC, saying that it created “two mutually exclusive configurations” that created more work … Continue reading "Sp…

As part of a deal with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service, SpaceX provided 20 Starlink terminal kits. The State of Kentucky has also requested 30 to 40 Starlink terminals, which SpaceX expects to send out soon. Satellite-based Internet access like Starlink’s service has shown promise for providing … Continue reading "SpaceX Sends S…

The San Francisco-based company Planet Labs has tapped SpaceX for a multi-launch deal to launch its Earth-imaging satellites through 2025. Planet’s Dove and (more recent) SuperDove CubeSats will launch as “rideshare” packages on SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rockets. The statement from Planet Labs did not specify how many SpaceX launches that the company signed up for … Continue reading "Planet Selects Space…

SpaceX has filed a complaint with the FCC regarding reports that a OneWeb satellite nearly collided with a Starlink satellite. OneWeb is a competitor for SpaceX’s Starlink satellite service. The incident occurred while OneWeb was launching a group of 36 Internet satellites out of a planned constellation of 648. OneWeb’s satellites will operate at a … Continue reading "SpaceX Disputes Report of Ne…
