Northwood just achieved some major technical validation: our phased array ground station achieved bidirectional communications links over the full duration of satellite passes with Planet Labs — this baby works!! How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. At Northwood we’re taking on the big task...

A lack of adequate ground connectivity is throttling progress in the space economy. Northwood phased array Portals introduce 10x the satellite connectivity at a single site over existing parabolic antennas. Launch, spacecraft, and connectivity are the three legs of the stool of infrastructure to support industrializing space and we have demonstrated our solution to dramatically accelerate its growth. Here’s more about our progress and what it means:

Many more bites of the elephant to come as we enter a new phase (pun intended) with Northwood. This next phase will be about taking our successes, hitting copy and paste with production, and deploying our Portals wherever in the world we find a nice big slice of open sky. If you’d like to learn more about our locations and capabilities, visit our website at or reach us at [email protected] If you like building quickly and seeing your work deployed in places around the globe with real impact, visit

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌍 🌏 To mark this special day, we’re tuning in to sen, the world’s first continuous 4K video livestream from space. Sen’s cameras are hosted on our Columbus module of the International International Space Station, with data delivered via the Airbus Space platform. Streaming in real time, it shows breathtaking views of our planet as the International Space Station passes over cities, oceans and deserts. Watch Earth from above, just like our astronaut Adenot Sophie does on the #εpsilon mission. 📹 Sen

🌍 At the World Space Business Week in Paris, our President Scott Wisniewski joined a panel on Direct-to-Device Satellites. Scott highlighted our MNO-first approach and comprehensive spectrum strategy: “Having a large aperture in low Earth orbit lets us handle more frequencies, balance cellular and MSS strategies, manage multiple frequencies within the same beam, and deliver as much service as possible. We don’t require a new device — it’s about enabling a full offering with flexible technology and spectrum strategy through an ecosystem approach.” 🚀 With the largest commercial phased-array satellites in LEO, flexible technology, and strong MNO partnerships, and we are building the future of global connectivity. #WSBW #Satellite #Connectivity #D2D #ASTSpaceMobile

🇨🇳 China just made history by firing a laser from Earth to a satellite orbiting the Moon—in full daylight—and receiving a return signal. This jaw-dropping achievement shatters decades of limitations caused by solar interference, opening the door to 24/7 lunar satellite tracking. The mission, led by the Deep Space Exploration Laboratory (DSEL) using the Tiandu-1 satellite, achieved unprecedented accuracy, boosting the future of Moon landings, rover coordination, and real-time navigation. It’s a foundational step toward China’s International Lunar Research Station and a major leap in the global space race.

Netanyahu speaking at the Knesset with India’s Modi: Almost 80 years ago, we both emerged from British rule and achieved our independence at nearly the same time. We share so many common interests. We are two democracies. You are a gigantic democracy, and Israel is one as well. Think about what we had to do, what we had to go through, and how we maintained our democracy.

Bridgit Mendler on how Northwood is fixing the space economy's ground infrastructure problem: "The problem that we're solving is for every satellite, it requires a connection point back to Earth so that they can control the spacecraft." "That point of contact on Earth is called the ground infrastructure." "If you don't have it, you don't have a space mission." "It literally is just like a rock in space you're doing nothing with." "There was this whole boom around spacecraft manufacturing." "And interestingly what started becoming the longest pole in the tent was just getting the point of contact on the ground to connect with." "You could build a satellite and launch it faster than you could actually connect with it from the ground." "Which just seemed absurd." Bridgit Mendler with Erik Torenberg
