Blue Origin wins $78.2 million contract to expand satellite processing infrastructure at Cape Canaveral

The contract is a public-private partnership agreement awarded by the U.S.
Sateliot hails first standards-based IoT connection from LEO to a commercial device

Spain’s Sateliot says it has achieved the first narrowband connection from a LEO satellite to a commercial IoT device built to global 5G standards known as 3GPP Release 17.
Sentinel-1D preparations underway in Kourou
The Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission is about to get its fourth satellite. Copernicus Sentinel-1D has now undergone the checks and functional tests prior to its integration with Ariane 6, ready for launch later this year.
Space agencies track rare 3I/ATLAS interstellar object near Mars
NASA and the European Space Agency are tracking the 3I/ATLAS interstellar object as it travels past Mars on its way toward the Sun and through the solar system.
The object is thought to be a comet and is only the third interstellar object to be identified within the solar system, according to NASA.
NASA's Mars Perseverance rover might have captured an image of 3I/ATLAS, which sci Starlink's Direct-to-Device Era: What It Means for Rural Connectivity and Media in Canada
The idea of connecting a phone directly to a satellite has moved from science fiction to reality. Starlink's direct-to-device (D2D) service promises to reach rural communities without cell towers or reliable fixed broadband. For Canada - especially remote provinces, territories, and Northern communities where broadband gaps persist - this could reshape how people stream media, pay online, and access remote education. Rehearsing for Sentinel-6B’s early days in space
Last month, mission controllers at ESA's mission control centre started a major simulations exercise to ensure that the next Copernicus Sentinel Earth Observation mission, Sentinel-6B, safely navigates its first days in space. As the launch is approaching, so is the end of this critical pre-launch phase.
Space infrastructure investments surge to five-quarter high

Early-stage investor Space Capital said global investments in core space infrastructure climbed to a five-quarter high of $4.4 billion over the three months to the end of September, amid a breakout year for U.S.
Sateliot hails standards-based IoT connection from LEO to a commercial device

Spain’s Sateliot says it has achieved a narrowband connection from a LEO satellite for the first time to a commercial IoT device built to global 5G standards known as 3GPP Release 17.
Satellites reveal the power of ocean swell
During recent storms, satellites recorded ocean waves averaging nearly 20 metres high – as tall as the Arc de Triomphe in Paris and the largest ever measured from space. Moreover, satellite data now reveal that ocean swells act as storm ‘messengers’: even though a storm may never make landfall, its swell can travel vast distances and bring destructive energy to distant coastlines.
