AIRBUS SPACE AND DEFENCE

After Cyclone Idai caused catastrophic damage on the continent, the C295 was used in a relief response that included operations to Espungabera, Mozambique. Landing on a short and rough airstrip on a side of a mountain, the airlifter was used to in bring food and supplies to the town cut off by the natural disaster.

The SpaceDataHighway is the world’s first ‘optical fibre’ network in the sky based on cutting-edge laser technology. It is a unique network of geostationary satellites permanently fixed over a network of ground stations that can transmit data at a rate of 1.8 Gbit/s. SpaceDataHighway satellites can connect to low-orbiting observation satellites at a distance up to 45000 km, intelligence UAVs or mission aircraft via laser. From its position in geostationary orbit, the SpaceDataHighway system relays data collected by observation satellites to Earth in near-real-time, a process that would normally take several hours. It thus enables the quantity of image and video data transmitted by observation satellites to be tripled and their mission plan to be reprogrammed at any time and in just a few minutes. https://www.airbus.com/space/telecommunications-satellites/space-data-highway.html
