A lot has changed since our last comprehensive satellite industry update back in March 2022.
Most exciting is that fast mobile satellite broadband has now become a practical reality across North America and much of the globe - with SpaceX's Starlink continuing to dominate the market.
But Starlink's popularity has come at a price - with congestion increasing and observed performance steadily declining across the network, sometimes reaching unusably slow speeds. SpaceX is hoping for relief from a new second-generation Starlink constellation, but many hurdles remain before that will come online.
Meanwhile - Starlink's competitors - OneWeb & Project Kuiper - continue to make progress towards launching their own alternative satellite options, with some exciting technology demonstrations already in orbit now seeking to prove their potential.
Some of these new satellite options even aim to offer wireless communications directly to smartphones with no additional hardware.
So what's the latest in the new space race?
Do any of these up-and-coming alternatives have a chance to steal Starlink's thunder or, at the very least, lighten Starlink's network load?
