Satellite from Meshcon discussion?


  • Hi, I watched Amir's keynote address at Meshcon on Spec 5's YouTube channel and I was really interested to hear his idea of launching a LEO satellite for the mesh. He mentioned that it would cost about $250,000. Has the company considered crowdfunding it? I'm sure a lot of people in the Meshtastic community would be enthusiastic about the idea.



  • Thank you, Michael. We are working on this right now. We are currently reaching out to put together a panel of radio, satcomm and space ops experts on our Space Advisory Board. We have also reached out to a couple of launch providers for details around costs, schedules and so on. As soon as we have enough information to credibly approach the community, we'll definitely engage. This will be a good thing for everyone!
