Falcon 9 Block 5 | Inmarsat-7 F1 (GX-7)

Inmarsat-7 is the seventh generation of satellites for the London-based global mobile satellite communications operator Inmarsat. The three satellites of the series - GX-7, 8 & 9 - will have an improved fully reconfigurable Ka-band payload for Inmarsat's Global Xpress services. They are optimized for real-time mobility and feature thousands of dynamically-formed beams that direct capacity with laser-like precision over high-demand areas, to provide HTS (High Throughput) broadband connectivity for the mobility market. The satellites will be based on Airbus’ new standard and fully reconfigurable satellite product line OneSat. Fully reconfigurable and featuring on board processing and active antennas, the three Ka-band spacecraft will be able to adjust their coverage, capacity and frequency.

The reminder alerts you thirty minutes ahead. 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.
