OneWeb has been tapped to lead a consortium of space companies to develop a satellite that can beam hop, switching which part of the world it covers. The group has received about $45 million (32 million pounds) from the
UK Space Agency, through the
European Space Agency’s (ESA) Sunrise Program. A demonstration satellite is set for launch in 2022.
The satellite is nicknamed Joey-Sat, like a kangaroo joey. It will be designed to hop between beams, in order to remotely direct beams of coverage to certain locations to deal with demand.
SatixFy,
Celestia UK, and
Astroscale UK, will work with OneWeb on the project. SatixFy has received most of the funding $35 million (25 million pounds) to develop a user terminal to support the satellite. Satixfy is matching the funds with its own internal investment.
