(CercleFinance.com) - Coinciding with the anniversary of the merger of Eutelsat and OneWeb, Eutelsat Group announces the successful launch and deployment of 20 satellites in low-Earth orbit, adding to the OneWeb satellite constellation.


The satellites were launched aboard SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket, which lifted off from Launch Site 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, at 10:13 pm local time on 19 October.

The satellites successfully separated from the spacecraft, and were split into 10 batches over a 20-minute period, with signal acquisition confirmed for all 20 satellites. The satellites were designed by Airbus U.S. Space & Defense in Merritt Island, Florida.
