ASTS

Today, President

scottwisniews

went live on Bloomberg Businessweek to discuss our purpose-built approach to deliver full broadband directly to standard smartphones.

"We depend on connectivity so much, and it's very important that the phone just works, whether it's for convenience, peace of mind, or emergencies. There's only one way to get broadband capabilities from space and that's with a big satellite. And we have the biggest."

With the largest commercial satellites in low Earth orbit, over 50 mobile operator partnerships worldwide, and a comprehensive spectrum strategy that combines our own spectrum and partner spectrum, we are rapidly building a future where everyone, everywhere, has access to strong, reliable broadband connectivity from space.

Another day, another successful broadband connection from space! Together with our strategic partner

Bell

, we have achieved Canada’s first-ever space-based 4G VoLTE voice call, broadband data connection, and video streaming using everyday smartphones

With rollout planned for 2026, the successful demonstration in New Brunswick brings us closer to delivering reliable, high-speed mobile broadband for Canadians everywhere, even in the hardest-to-reach areas

BlueBird 6 has completed final assembly and testing and is ready for flight! On October 12, it will head to India aboard an Antonov large cargo plane

We are officially kicking off our next-gen launch campaign:

• BlueBird 7 is expected to ship to the Cape Canaveral launch site in October

• BlueBirds 8-16 are in various stages of production, with launches planned every 1-2 months on average during 2025 and 2026

• On track to complete 40 phased arrays by early 2026, bringing us to BlueBird 46

• Expecting 45-60 satellites in orbit by year-end 2026

We have partnered with 50+ mobile network operators serving nearly 3 billion subscribers, supported by a flexible spectrum strategy blending our own licensed spectrum with partner spectrum. These BlueBirds will be the largest commercial satellites ever deployed in LEO – each featuring a 2,400 sq ft phased array with true direct-to-cell broadband, capable of up to 10,000 MHz of processing bandwidth and peak speeds of 120 Mbps per cell #5G

$ASTS is building fancy cell towers in space. People never believed you could do that.

BUILDING SATELLITES: County commissioners without discussion approved $193,000 in incentive funding for AST SpaceMobile to set up a 30,000-square-foot plant in Homestead to employ 60 workers to build satellites for its space-based cellular broadband network. Work on the plant is to begin in October. The incentives are based on an average salary of $89,583. Capital investment in the leased plant is to be $10.8 million. The Midland, TX, company designs, manufactures and operates satellites and plans to ramp up its manufacture, growing from the present two per month to a target of six a month. AST launches satellites from Cape Canaveral as its “space technology aims to provide uninterrupted coverage across the globe” in its AST SpaceMobile Network, the company says. AST looks to create the “only space-based cellular broadband network.”
