The international space agency confirmed that these new comms relay sats could arrive this coming 2024. However, this could still change depending on the issues that they could encounter during the satellite productions.
CASIS is the main reason why the innovation of ISS and SpaceLink has arrived. The Center for the Advancement of Science decided to find SpaceLink to test its incoming relay satellites.
On the other hand, the ISS's U.S. National Laboratory managing company chose the startup to test its 10Gbps optical terminal. As of the moment, SpaceLink's fund is still not yet finalized.
