A group of Europe’s biggest mobile operators are in early talks to create a consortium to bid on satellite spectrum and offer direct-to-mobile service, which would rival Elon Musk’s Starlink service on the continent, sources said bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

$ASTS: AST SpaceMobile notified the FCC today that BB11-BB13 satellites were launched successfully into low Earth orbit and are operating nominally at an orbital altitude of 530 km (+ 30 km) and inclination of 53° (+2°), as authorized.
This puts to bed any claims of issues.

That's a wrap on our latest checkouts for Neutron's reusable Hungry Hippo fairing ✅ The Hippo is now back inside its hangar where it will be integrated with Neutron's interstage once it arrives to the Eastern Shore.

A new satellite connectivity capability is taking shape in New Zealand.
@2degreesmobile has officially opened the Marton Satellite Ground Station.
The gateway links AST SpaceMobile’s global satellite system with 2degrees’ core infrastructure, advancing integration to deliver voice, broadband data and text directly to everyday smartphones, without specialized devices.
With nearly 50 gateways in various stages of completion, installation, and planning, we continue to build out our global gateway footprint, bringing us another step closer to commercial service for people to stay seamlessly connected wherever they live, work and travel.

BlueBirds 12 and 13 are now fully deployed.
Each 2,400-square-foot communications array is part of a platform built to address far more than mobile connectivity. From cellular broadband to AI computing and advanced government applications, such as space-based radar capabilities.
Production of BlueBird 14 is completed, while BlueBirds 15 and 16 are nearing completion and are not far behind as we move towards launch, with production advancing through BlueBird 48.
A growing constellation. An expanding range of applications. A market that reaches across commercial and government communications infrastructure worldwide. 🇺🇸📶🌎📱
Built in Texas. Broadband from space. Execution at scale.

Today @POTUS signed a new National Space Transportation Policy, one that meets this moment of explosive growth and positions America to lead the next era of space.
In the 13 years since the last update to the Policy, U.S. launches have surged 10x: from 19 successful orbital launches in 2013 to 178 in 2025. This policy builds on that momentum to enable 1,000 launches and reentries on American soil by 2030.
Most of our launch infrastructure dates back to the 1960s. This Policy catalyzes commercial co-investment to build next-generation launch and reentry sites and designates an additional federal land reentry site to bring operations home.
It expands space transportation to include reentry and in-space operations. This unlocks reverse logistics and new orbital markets. The policy also delivers priority airspace corridors, transparent range allocation, a commercial-first approach enabling Americans on the Moon by 2028 and initial Moon Base elements by 2030, and rapid, resilient launch capabilities for national security.
This is how America leads.🚀🇺🇸

@mining_great (#GWMO LN) 3.65p, Mkt Cap £14.9m – Drilling starts at the Defender tungsten project in Nevada 🇺🇸 Great Western Mining confirms that the 2026 exploration programme is “fully funded”.
🔸Great Western Mining started its previously announced resource drilling at its Defender tungsten exploration project in Nevada yesterday.
🔸The drilling aims to test “an initial 600-1,000 metre corridor encompassing the Pine Crow, Dough God and Defender tungsten mines” as the company works to “deliver a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) by the end of 2026”.
🔸The planned drilling is for “a minimum 7,000 feet (2,135 metre) … programme”.
🔸Additional work to advance the project includes metallurgical results from a 750kg bulk sample, taken during Q2, which are expected later this month.
🔸Great Western Mining confirms that the 2026 exploration programme is “fully funded”.
