First launch of 24 Rivada Outernet communication satellites.

Rivada Space Networks aims to deliver gigabit-speed internet globally, including the polar regions, bypassing the public internet and third-party infrastructure. The project rests on a constellation of 600 LEO satellites called the "Outernet", placed at an orbit of 1050km.

This network is designed as a second internet backbone in space, capable of routing traffic from one satellite to another with no need for a gateway on earth until the data reaches its destination.

The launch date is currently targeted for 2025 (UTC).
