Successful launch… again!🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 🚀🚀 🚀
Our DC team in full comms with BlueBirds 11, 12, and 13 within minutes, and just confirmed full Nominal Operations.
BlueBirds 14, 15, and 16 to follow soon after, with production underway in Texas through spacecraft 42.
We now have ~20,000 sq ft of combined aperture hardware in Space! Bigger is better and we have the biggest!!!
Beta service around the corner! 🤠 🇺🇸🌎📶📱
$ASTS and $META are now building WhatsApp over AST’s network for direct-to-device voice, video, messaging and Meta AI worldwide.
The partnership also explores space-edge computing, laser backbones and cloud integration for seamless satellite-to-terrestrial coverage.
250 Years. One Relentless Spirit of Innovation
Now extending it beyond Earth
For two and a half centuries, America has been a place where bold ideas take flight.
We are proud to continue the tradition - building what has never been built before: the world’s first space-based cellular broadband network to connect directly to everyday smartphones.
Together, we are working to build a more connected America, and a more connected world. 🌎📶📱🇺🇲
Built in Texas. Broadband from space. A market we invented.

Thousands of miles from Midland, Texas… and the first bus I see in Scotland says Midland BLUEBIRD. 🚌🧇
As an $ASTS investor, that’s the kind of coincidence you can’t help but smile at.
BlueBirds. Midland. Shipping soon? Manifesting. 🙏🏼🚀
$ASTS is up nearly 18% after reports that Japan is expected to select Rakuten & AST SpaceMobile for a ~$1B satellite-to-phone project.
The funding would support BlueBird satellites and network infrastructure that can also be used globally through AST’s federated constellation.
First, ASTS. AST SpaceMobile.
Building satellites that deliver cellular broadband directly to regular smartphones from space. No special hardware needed.
AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone already partnered.
If the constellation scales, the addressable market is massive.
Successful launch!🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
All satellites were captured within minutes and already orbiting Earth with all systems nominal.
Congratulations to the incredible AST SpaceMobile team! 250Y U.S.A. 🌎📶 🤠
AST SpaceMobile $ASTS welcomed the proposed joint venture between AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon to expand satellite-based direct-to-device mobile connectivity across the U.S. The company said the collaboration could accelerate nationwide coverage, reduce dead zones, and support broader adoption of space-based cellular broadband.
ASTS also reiterated its goal of becoming a key infrastructure provider for low Earth orbit mobile connectivity.
