Solstar Space Early Successes
Solstar has been demonstrating space-based communications for years.
Solstar is Developing WiFi Access Points for Lunar Missions
Solstar began development of the WiFi Access Points for future lunar orbit space stations. When installed aboard spacecraft orbiting the moon the WiFi Access Points will provide a reliable communication solution.
Blue Origin Flight 2 – Persistent Comms Launch to Landing
Solstar’s Schmitt Space Communicator maintained a consistent internet connection from launch to landing, as well as during an emergency escape simulation.
Blue Origin Flight 1 – First Commercial WiFi Hotspot Aboard a Spacecraft
Solstar successfully uses its onboard internet connection to Tweet from outer space. This was the first commercial tweet from above the Karman line.
UP Aerospace Rocket Internet Connection with a Satellite
Solstar demonstrates first internet connection between a commercial satellite constellation and a spacecraft at rocket velocity and at an altitude of over 100km.
