Making Global Impact through Transformational Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Investment– One Woman’s Story

Sputnik, 1957

Astra Footprint – the Potential

SES/ASTRA – SES/GLOBAL

• First private TV satellite in Europe ( 1983-1985 )• Monopoly Breaking• Happy Day ( Ann Glover)• The Digital Revolution – Takeover (1993 – 1994)• SES Global (1997/1998 – 2000 )

Being at the top is slippery and dangerous. You must constantly go

Forward and be smarter, quicker, more innovative. Or… you can

Sell out.

LASER COMMUNICATIONS FROM SATELLITE – DOES THIS REALLY WORK?

Laser Light - the World’s 1st Global Hybrid Satellite-Terrestrial All Optical Network System

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:

• NASA (MIT) Lunar Laser Communications Project – October, 2013• Key Operating Metrics:

• 250,000KM from Earth• Demonstrated 660Mbps Service Link• Three (3) Global Ground Stations – Arizona, New Mexico, Tenerife• Steerable Beam To Facilitate Weather Avoidance

• European Space Agency – ALPHASAT (TeSAT)• AlphaSat's Laser Communications terminal (TPD1) correctly identified its target at ESA's ground station on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands for the first time on 4 November, proving that it can be pointed precisely enough to hit a point more than 36,000 km away.

• It will demonstrate the use of laser technology for collecting information from the congested low orbits and then transmitting it to ground stations from its position high above in geostationary orbit.

•    TDP1 is a precursor to EDRS, the European Data Relay System that will perform data-relay services in particular for the four Sentinel Earth observation spacecraft.
