Satellites have a surprising number of roles in our everyday lives - from satellite TV and home internet to GPS navigation systems. But did you know that satellites are also a vital tool in combating modern piracy. ☠️ With 90% of global trade relying on maritime shipping, vessel security is critical. Our satellites provide seamless connectivity to enable real-time tracking, route monitoring, and rapid communication during emergencies so that shipping companies and authorities can detect and respond to piracy threats quickly.

📲🛰️ A major direct-to-device milestone as we successfully share messages from a mobile device over satellite for the first time in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia! The satellite-enabled two-way messages and SOS messages were sent over our highly reliable L-band network, with tests showing feasibility across the region. This latest success is part of our ongoing innovation with D2D technologies to help reduce barriers to connectivity in regions where terrestrial networks are unavailable: connecting people wherever they go and supporting more efficient, sustainable and safer operations for companies. Pictured is our stand at this week's Connecting the World from the Skies event hosted hosted by the هيئة الاتصالات والفضاء والتقنية (CST) and the International Telecommunication Union, in Riyadh. Visitors included H.E. Dr. Mohammed Saud Al-Tamimi, Governor of CST, and Mario Maniewicz, Director of the ITU's Radiocommunication Bureau.
