AST SpaceMobile has successfully launched its five BlueBird satellites aimed at transforming standard smartphones into satellite phones, enabling communication even in remote areas.
The BlueBird satellites are designed to provide high-speed broadband service comparable to traditional towers, focusing on areas typically underserved by cellular networks.
This initial rollout will cater to beta test customers from AT&T and Verizon, expanding cellular capabilities into regions like rural communities and national parks.
With a successful two-way voice call and data download test completed earlier this year, AST SpaceMobile advances towards full realization of its satellite communication network.
