AST SpaceMobile, Inc.

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. is a telecommunications company that operates a space-based cellular broadband network for mobile phones. Based in Midland, Texas, the company was founded in 2017 with the goal of providing cellular broadband services to users who travel in and out of areas without terrestrial mobile services on land, at sea, or in flight.

The company’s SpaceMobile service is powered by a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth at an altitude of approximately 22,000 miles. The satellites are capable of providing mobile broadband services to users in remote areas, such as those at sea or in flight, who cannot access terrestrial mobile services. The service is also available to users who are traveling through remote locations, such as rural areas or developing countries.

The company also offers a range of products and services, such as data plans, voice plans, and roaming services. The company’s data plans offer speeds of up to 100 Mbps, while its voice plans offer unlimited calling and texting. Additionally, AST SpaceMobile’s roaming services allow users to access their service while traveling in over 200 countries.

In addition to its SpaceMobile service, the company also provides ground-based solutions for customers seeking to access their service in remote locations. These solutions include mobile hotspots, base stations, and other hardware, as well as software and services.

AST SpaceMobile is committed to providing innovative solutions to its customers. The company has partnered with a number of leading technology companies, such as Qualcomm, Ericsson, and Intelsat, to develop next-generation technologies and services. The company is also actively involved in a number of research and development projects, such as the development of 5G technology.

AST SpaceMobile has received numerous awards and recognitions for its innovative services and products, including the 2019 “Innovative Company of the Year” award from the Midland Chamber of Commerce. The company is also a member of the Space Foundation and the Satellite Industry Association.
