Falcon 9 Block 5 | BlueBird Block 2 #6-8
AST SpaceMobile’s Block 2 BlueBird satellites are designed to deliver up to 10 times the bandwidth capacity of the BlueBird Block 1 satellites, required to achieve 24/7 continuous cellular broadband service coverage in the United States, with beams designed to support a capacity of up to 40 MHz, enabling peak data transmission speeds up to 120 Mbps, supporting voice, full data and video applications. The Block 2 BlueBirds, featuring as large as 2400 square foot communications arrays, will be the largest satellites ever commercially deployed in Low Earth orbit once launched. This launch will feature 3 satellites.
No launch time has been announced yet, so the reminder is an all-day entry with an alert on the morning of the day. No live coverage has been announced yet, so the file points at this page instead. It is a file rather than a subscription: launch dates slip, and a saved entry does not move when they do.
Current date is a placeholder or rough estimation based on unreliable or interpreted sources.
