Facebook Satellite-! SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket



Facebook Satellite-!

Facebook, technology site Wired, has published its Internet satellite 'Athena' as part of internet service to hundreds of millions of people still not covered under Internet service.
The United States Federal Communications Commission or the FCC has submitted an application to the world's largest social media. 'Pointview Tech LLC'
According to this application document, "The service was not available and the broadband service implemented in the areas not provided in the service" was designed.
Satellite services in the world's remote areas are not the sole focus of Facebook. Elan Mask's SPExX and SoftBank supported OneWeb work with the same goal.
In a statement, a Facebook spokesman said, "There is nothing to say about the specific projects at this moment, we believe that broadband connectivity can be possible in the marginal areas where there is a lack of internet connectivity, and satellite technology will be an important factor in the ability of the new generation of broadband infrastructure."
Though this has worked for many days, Facebook has not been very successful in the previous two projects.
In June this year, Facebook announced the closure of Project Aquila for Internet service through its solar-powered drone. In 2010, Facebook stopped the project to provide alternative services to cellular services with a small helicopter.
   

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg struck a bitter tone in his response to the explosion of the SpaceX rocket carrying a satellite intended for use on his Internet.org project in Africa

Writing on his Facebook page, Zuckerberg said: “As I’m here in Africa, I’m deeply disappointed to hear that SpaceX’s launch failure destroyed our satellite that would have provided connectivity to so many entrepreneurs and everyone else across the continent.”


SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded on its Cape Canaveral launch pad during a test Thursday morning, destroying a commercial satellite that Facebook had planned to use to extend Internet access in Africa.
No one was injured, but the accident could ground SpaceX for weeks or months, depending on its cause and the extent of damage to Launch Complex 40.
It was the second time in just over a year that SpaceX has lost a Falcon 9 rocket, which is slated to launch NASA astronauts for the first time as soon as next year.

Several members of Congress on Thursday expressed support for the company led by tech visionary Elon Musk, and industry analysts said the event was unlikely to derail SpaceX or the emerging commercial space industry it represents over the long-term
