These tests utilized AST SpaceMobile’s BlueBird 2 satellites, launched last September. On February 24, Verizon performed a live video call between a satellite-connected mobile device and another device on Verizon’s terrestrial network.

These technological advancements pave the way for improved global connectivity, particularly in remote areas where terrestrial infrastructure is limited. They also put Verizon and AT&T in direct competition with other similar initiatives, such as T-Mobile and SpaceX’s partnership for Starlink services, which recently launched a public beta for satellite messaging.<\/p>\n
