Globalstar will launch six of its second-generation satellites during a 90-day window that opens on Jul. 5, the company announced.
The satellites will be launched by Arianespace from the Baikonur Cosmodrome using the Soyuz rocket.
The new Globalstar satellites, part of a constellation that secures Globalstar's space segment beyond 2025, will be integrated with the company’s satellites launched in 2007, with a mission to provide legacy and enhanced next-generation satellite voice and data services for at least the next 15 years.
“Our validation tests of the satellite subsystems and thermal vacuum tests have been successfully completed and we are on schedule to begin launching our satellites this summer,” Tony Navarra, president of global operations for Globalstar, said in a statement.
