One more thing the capitalists have stolen from us - the night sky:
"Brightness statistics for #satellites of the #Starlink, #BlueBird, #Qianfan, #Guowang and #OneWeb constellations are reported. Nearly all these #spacecraft exceed the magnitude 7+ brightness limit pertaining to interference with professional #research. Most also exceed the magnitude 6 reference where they distract from aesthetic appreciation of the night sky."

French satellite operator Eutelsat met quarterly revenue estimates on Thursday, as the European rival to SpaceX's Starlink attracted new government customers for its #OneWeb satellites.
Mal abgesehen von Starlink - wie sieht es mit dem Satelliteninternet bei Oneweb (Eutelsat) aus?

Op dit moment wordt bekeken of de Europese provider #Oneweb in de Oekraïne de plaats van Musk's #Starlink in kan nemen. In 2022 pikte Rusland 36 satellieten van Oneweb in.
»In March 2022, media reported that OneWeb was scheduled to launch a batch of 36 satellites from Baikonur cosmodrome days after Russia's #invasion of #Ukraine. …«
Eutelsat plans to supply Ukraine with satellite connectivity amid Starlink uncertainty.
Eutelsat, which owns OneWeb, a competitor to Starlink, stated that it is “actively collaborating with European institutions and business partners,” adding that it has equipment that can be “deployed swiftly in Ukraine to connect the most critical missions and infrastructures.”
Geopolitical developments have raised the prospect of #OneWeb satellites replacing Elon Musk's Starlink in Ukraine.
#Starlink rival #Eutelsat's share price triples in just three days.

About to begin our #RightsCon25 session about "Cross-Border Data Flows and Connectivity in Conflict Zones: A Role for Satellite Internet?" We'll be speaking about #LEOs systems such as #Starlink and #OneWeb - and what role they can - and can not - play in conflict zone. Looking forward to a great conversation!

#Europe already is working on their own system, called #IRIS2. Application focus apparently already broadened from government/corporate use to B2C.

While French #Eutelsat is building a consumer system with Airbus. They recently announced world’s first 5G non-terrestrial network connection (straight to phone, no terminal required), leveraging #OneWeb LEO satellites.
»French satellite service provider #Eutelsat has successfully carried out the world's first trial of #5G Non-Terrestrial Network connection using #OneWeb's low Earth orbit (#LEO) satellites,«
Let's hope this keeps #Musk and his #Starlink out of the EU.

Lawinengefahr? Das Fraunhofer FHR nutzt #Passivradar mit Signalen von #Starlink und #OneWeb, um Lawinen auch in entlegenen Regionen zu erkennen – ohne zusätzliche Infrastruktur!
Passivradar nutzt bestehende Signale, ist kostengünstig und flexibel. Tests zeigen: Die Methode funktioniert zuverlässig, selbst in schwer zugänglichen Bergregionen.

Anyone able to share their experience moving away from #StarLink? (Assume fibre and cellular Internet are not available.) #ProjectKuiper doesn’t seem to be ready yet, and it feels only marginally better to be paying Bezos. #OneWeb doesn’t seem to serve domestic customers. Geostationary services vary around the world by their nature - if you have it, do you have trouble with the latency? Here we seem to have services provided by Eutelsat, who apparently have no qualms still operating in Russia…
