Planning the founder of the American company "SpaceX" space technology Elon Musk to build satellites contribute to the provision of high-speed land of Internet connections, which can be extended one day to reach Mars, to keep the astronauts in touch Wide network when disembarking there in the end.
Came Mask CEO of Tesla Motors, the US specializing in the design and manufacture of electric vehicles to the magazine, "Bloomberg Business Week" weekly remarks during an event held by SpaceX in Seattle last Friday.
Mask explained that the satellite Internet industrial project will provide global, fast and cheap Internet is not hampered by the ground wire, and said that "the speed of light in the vacuum of space faster with 40% of the fiber optic cable." He pointed out that the Internet is to be provided by the satellite could be a few scattered population density areas serving around the world.
He said that the satellite network, which aspires to build will be the largest global communications system, and will be launched into Earth orbit at an altitude of 750 miles (about 1207 kilometers) above the Earth's surface, and that distance is lower than most of the moons orbit current connections.
On a theoretical level, these satellite network can compete with submarine cables, which are still facing problems in connecting the Internet service to some areas around the world, and the low distance to those satellites may help to run most of the Web services without any problems, due to the short distance Stqtaha electromagnetic signals between the satellite and the device for future reference.
But the dream holder does not end at this point, and because it puts his eyes towards the future colony on Mars, the founder of SpaceX specialized in the manufacture of commercial space vehicles aspires to connect to the Internet extends to the Red Planet when humans landed on its roof in the end.
"It will be important that Mars has a global communications network, too," he said. "I think that this thing must be, because I do not see anyone else doing it."
He predicted holder to instruct his ten billion dollars, and that requires at least five years of starting it from the ground, and will begin sixty employees of the new SpaceX's office in Seattle in the process of satellites needed to build to complete the project and supplies its launch and transfer of ground round.
