Starcloud Seeks FCC Approval for 88,000-Satellite Constellation
Starcloud, an orbital data center startup, is pursuing regulatory approval from the FCC for a vast constellation of up to 88,000 satellites, aiming to enhance data processing capabilities in space.
Starcloud has submitted a proposal to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a constellation that could consist of as many as 88,000 satellites. This ambitious plan aims to establish an orbital data center infrastructure.
The proposed constellation is expected to significantly impact satellite communications and data processing, potentially increasing throughput and capacity for various applications.
As the FCC reviews the proposal, considerations will include the technical feasibility, orbital dynamics, and potential interference with existing satellite networks.
