Meteor showers are among the most beautiful astronomical phenomena we can experience, but they can be fickle. Now a Japanese company is planning to put on artificial shooting star shows on demand with the Sky Canvas project. And there might be some sci… Continue reading Sky Canvas satellites shoot for on demand “artificial meteor showers”
If you look up at the night sky in a dark enough place, with enough patience you’re almost sure to see a satellite cross the sky. It’s pretty cool to …read more Continue reading See Satellites in Broad Daylight with This Sky-Mapping Dish Antenna
Quantum cybersecurity firm QuSecure has collaborated with Accenture to develop a multi-orbit quantum-resilient satellite communications capability.
