Sky and Space Global is using two ground stations, one in Aalborg, Denmark and one in Alaska. These
ground stations provide communication services in almost every satellites orbit.
The In-Orbit Testing plan will continue in the next 6-8 weeks and Sky and Space Global will update the
market on the progress.
Sky and Space Global’s CEO, Mr. Meir Moalem said:
“We are delighted to reveal that the 3 Diamonds continue to perform as planned and are
communicating with the ground stations with no anomalies. We’ll continue the testing in the lead up
to the commercial demonstrations of our satellites in two months-time. This is a very exciting time for us
and we look forward to the next stage of our journey to delivering affordable satellite connectivity to
Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime.
