Space race to bring satellite internet to the world may be five to ten years away

Firstpost  

Internet beamed from space is a priority for isolated zones more than cities & still at least 5-10 years away. Anxiety has set in across the space industry ever since the world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos, revealed Project Kuiper : a plan to put 3,236 satellites in orbit to provide high-speed internet across the globe. “These guys coming in, I wish them really well… I hope they don’t take 30 years to become successful like we did.” Streaming on the plane Having internet beamed in from space is more of a priority for isolated zones than it is for cities, where users have fiber optic or cable connections. Sachdeva expects most of the companies to die off, adding that the market will eventually have room for “maybe two” and that space-delivered internet services won’t be commonplace for at least five to 10 years. “People don’t pay enough attention about the need for spectrum rights.” But Amazon’s many advantages are abundantly clear: the group has a formidable IT infrastructure on the ground that can support the satellite network.
