World s first re-progammable commercial satellite set to launch

World s first re-progammable commercial satellite set to launch SECTIONS Last Updated: Jul 30, 2021, 01:09 PM IST Share Synopsis Because it can be reprogrammed while orbiting in a fixed position 35,000 kilometres (22,000 miles) above the Earth, the Quantum can respond to changing demands for data transmission and secure communications during its 15-year lifetime, ESA said. Getty Images A successful launch would pave the way for mass production of the satellites, which have so far been one-offs. The European Space Agency will on Friday launch the world s first commercial fully re-programmable satellite, paving the way for a new era of more flexible communications. Unlike conventional models that are designed and hard-wired on Earth and cannot be repurposed once in orbit, the Eutelsat Quantum is based on so-called software-defined technology that allows users to tailor the communications to their needs almost in real-time.
