Astra
+ Eutelsat link for S-Band
Normally
they’re at loggerheads but just
for once all was sweetness and light
between SES Global and Eutelsat on Oct
30 in Paris, as they announced their
joint S-Band initiative, dubbed “Solaris”.
Romain Bausch, Global’s CEO, and
his opposite number Giuliano Berretta
at Eutelsat presented their scheme to
fund and launch an S-Band payload on
Eutelsat’s upcoming W2A craft,
with the payload supplied by Alcatel-Alenia
(a Spacebus 4000C4) and a launch date
late in 2008/early 2009. The
full story is available only to subscribers.
