Guinness World Record. 🏆 We build bigger in Texas 💪💪💪
BlueBirds just made history, recognized by Guinness as the world’s largest commercial communications arrays ever deployed in low Earth orbit.
An American breakthrough in space engineering.
Built in Texas. Broadband from space. A market we invented. 🇺🇸🌎📶📱

BlueBirds 11, 12, and 13 are stacked and getting ready for their August 5th orbital launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
BlueBirds 14, 15, and 16 to follow right after.
Production advancing through BlueBird 42.
Built in Texas. Broadband from space. Designed to connect directly to everyday smartphones. 🇺🇸🌎📶📱

@spacanpanman@AbelAvellan@nicooben This is the first unambiguous reference to Radar from any company source that I’m aware of. This is a big deal.
There’s been lots of non-comms discussion, but that could easily be dismissed as just PNT. Radar is a big deal.
BlueBirds 8, 9, and 10 are now fully deployed to their full size, each the world's largest communications arrays operating in Low Earth Orbit.
We invented a new way to design, manufacture at scale, deploy, and fly lightweight composite stackable architecture combined, with the world's largest and most advanced direct- to-device and radar phased-array with the ability to launch them in groups of 3, 5, 6, or 8 on a single launch.
Our BlueBird platform brings together high-performance space-based cellular broadband with peak data rates approaching 200 Mbps, space AI edge computing, and many mission-critical government applications, all on one platform where the largest-ever size matters!
BlueBirds 11, 12 and 13 are already at the Cape preparing for their imminent launch. BlueBirds 14, 15 and 16 are right behind them. Production has already moved through satellite 42.
All of this is happening in Texas. 🤠🇺🇸📶🌎📱
BlueBirds 9 and 10 are now successfully deployed in orbit.
Two more of the world's largest commercial communications arrays have joined our growing constellation. Another step closer to the future of cellular broadband from space.
With BlueBirds 11, 12, and 13 at Cape Canaveral preparing for their imminent launch, and production advancing through spacecraft 41, we continue to execute at scale.
Innovation in orbit. Execution in motion. 🌎📶📱🇺🇸

Built Differently.
Engineering at scale unfolded in orbit.
This is cellular broadband from space.
BlueBird 10 has successfully deployed in low Earth orbit. Adding another of the world's largest communications array - the size of a tennis court - to our growing constellation.
BlueBirds 8 and 9 are next.
Engineered for broadband connectivity to everyday smartphones. No special hardware. No modifications. Cellular broadband from space. 🌎📶📱🇺🇸

Execution in Motion
BlueBird 11 is on its way from Midland to Cape Canaveral ahead of next month's orbital launch.
BlueBirds 12 and 13 will follow soon. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
Production continues through BlueBird 38 in Texas.
Build. Ship. Launch. Repeat.
Execution at scale. 🌎📶📱🇺🇲

@CatSE___ApeX___ I appreciate the post, but this filing does not clearly indicate that they are performing RADAR work. I think this is insufficient information to distinguish between that and alternative to GPS (PNT) services. Grok thread here: https://t.co/UdO332iwL2
