Sateliot amplia constelação de satélites 5G com apoio do governo da Espanha. Projeto quer garantir conectividade global e reforçar a soberania europeia

With Support of 14 Million Euros, Catalan Company Aims to Launch 250 5G Satellites to Connect Sensors and Devices Worldwide. Project Aligns with European Initiative IRIS².

Sateliot, a Spanish space technology company, has just received an investment of 13.85 million euros from the Spanish government. The funding comes from the European Next Tech fund and will help expand the company’s satellite constellation—all aimed at connecting devices through a 5G network in space. The information was published by the website Xataka this Wednesday (26).

This funding shows that Europe is moving to create a European alternative to Starlink, the satellite internet service from SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk. The idea is to ensure that the continent has autonomy in connectivity and does not fully depend on solutions from the United States.

Sateliot Aims to Launch 250 Satellites by 2026

Sateliot is receiving investment from the Spanish government at a strategic moment. The company, founded in Catalonia in 2018, has already launched six small satellites known as CubeSats and aims to reach 250 units by 2026.

This movement is also linked to IRIS², a European Union project aimed at creating its own network of satellites for secure communications, rural connectivity, and military services. The program foresees public and private investment of 10 billion euros and is expected to start operating in 2027.

With support for Sateliot, Spain aims to ensure that companies in the country actively participate in this new space ecosystem. According to Xataka and El País, Sateliot’s constellation could be used to integrate and complement the services of IRIS².

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Heir bought 23,000 degraded acres in the Scottish Highlands, fenced the area, planted nearly 1 million native trees, and transformed empty mountains into a forest officially recognized after meeting 15 evaluation criteria over 20 years.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.
