The Falcon Heavy flight is a flight for space-based Internet communications systems.
ViaSat-3 is a series of three Ka-band satellites designed to offer far superior capabilities in terms of speed of service and flexibility of a satellite platform. Each ViaSat 3-class satellite is expected to provide network capacity in excess of 1 terabit per second and leverage a high degree of flexibility to dynamically route capacity to where customers are located.
