After Jeff Bezos' 'very rough day', Amazon satellite chief says satellites remain secure
Amazon’s satellite internet division has sought to calm employee concern after last week’s Blue Origin New Glenn rocket explosion, which founder Jeff Bezos described as a ‘very rough day’. The incident took place during a hot-fire test at Cape Canaveral, when the rocket erupted into a massive fireball ahead of a mission expected to carry Amazon’s operational internet satellites. While the company reported no injuries, the blast caused a significant amount of damage to Blue Origin’s launch...
Starlink rival Qianfan hits satellite milestone, but is it too slow and costly?
Starlink rival Qianfan hits satellite milestone, but is it too slow and costly? Constellation now has 201 satellites in orbit but the company is said to be under pressure to ramp up launches The constellation now has 201 satellites after a successful launch on board a Zhuque-2E rocket from the Gobi Desert at 4.23pm Beijing time on Tuesday. The mission delivered Qianfan DTC-01 – a direct-to-cell test satellite – alongside a satellite from China Mobile, state broadcaster CCTV reported.
Satellite images show Israel’s destruction of historical city of Tyre
Satellite images show Israel’s destruction of historical city of Tyre Satellite data shows damage to residential areas, UNESCO World Heritage buffer zones and Palestinian camps in Israeli attacks. Newly evaluated satellite images show widespread destruction across the southern Lebanese coastal city of Tyre, following a relentless wave of Israeli air strikes after systematic forced displacement orders. An analysis of the images by Al Jazeera’s open-source unit, which compared satellite data...
Satellite images show destruction of the US-Israel war on Iran
Satellite images show destruction of the US-Israel war on Iran From Iranian naval ports to US military bases across the Gulf, Al Jazeera shows 15 sites before and after the attacks. Since the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran 100 days ago, the full scale of destruction across the region has been difficult to assess. Satellite imagery companies, including Planet Labs – the world’s largest commercial satellite operator based in California – have placed an indefinite blackout on...
MIT’s new spacecraft engine could send tiny satellites to Mars
MIT’s new spacecraft engine could send tiny satellites to Mars MIT’s new “best of both worlds” rocket system could give tiny satellites the power to sprint, cruise, and explore deep space using a single fuel tank. - Date: - June 10, 2026 - Source: - Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Summary: - MIT researchers have shown that one fuel can power both chemical and electric spacecraft thrusters, potentially transforming what small satellites can do.
FCC relaxes Amazon's satellite internet deadline
FCC relaxes Amazon's satellite internet deadline The retailer had until July 30 to launch 1,600 satellites, but won't have the rocket capacity in time. The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has granted Amazon an extension on its Leo satellite internet deployment, according to a ruling released on June 5.
SpaceX wins $4 billion Space Force contract for satellites that target 'airborne threats' anywhere on Earth
SpaceX wins $4 billion Space Force contract for satellites that target 'airborne threats' anywhere on Earth The contract is for a satellite constellation that can "track and target airborne threats globally." The U.S Space Force has awarded SpaceX $4.16 billion to help the military track airborne targets using satellites. The massive contract is under the Space-Based Airborne Moving Target Indicator (SB-AMTI) program, which will add space systems to the U.S. military's tracking capabilities.
Chinese satellite company releases images of Nvidia, Apple HQs
Chinese satellite company releases images of Nvidia, Apple HQs Photos offering bird’s-eye view of the campuses are ‘routine satellite news’ according to the firm, which has been sanctioned by the US The satellite images – captured by the company’s Jilin-1 constellation – offer a detailed bird’s-eye view of the region. They include the futuristic Endeavour and Voyager buildings where Nvidia is based in Santa Clara and the spaceship-like Apple Park in Cupertino.
HADT: A Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Differential Transformer for Autonomous Earth Observation Satellite Cluster
arXiv:2605.31023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work addresses the problem of autonomous resource management in heterogeneous satellite cluster conducting Earth Observation (EO) missions including optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites. In autonomous operation mode, satellites are equipped with intelligent capabilities enabling real-time decision-making based on the latest conditions, while requiring minimal interaction with ground operators. Traditional scheduling...
Statistically Robust Resource Block Allocation for Satellite Communications
Announce Type: new Abstract: It is critical to dimension (accurately estimate capacity of) a satellite system prior to deployment, as it is very expensive to reconfigure launched satellite systems that fail to meet demand or that waste capacity. The fundamental requirement is a dimensioning rule for resource blocks (RBs) given a satellite footprint and a target overload probability (target Quality-of-Service). The rule must be robust to the spatial covariance structure of signal attenuation,...
