In the world we live in, communication is something that has become strange and we take it easy without understanding the complexity of these networks, and also that sending an "inactive" thing like SMS is important to have a series of horns that cover almost any place in the world where we want to communicate.
With Lynk's recent advances, I might even be sending an SMS from space. And what is that? We'll tell you.
The first SMS goes from space to standard mobile
Communication on mobile networks is nothing new, but Lynk's company has gained a milestone in the history of telecommunications, and that was just a few hours ago announcing that they could send the first SMS message from space to the Android phone. marketing, without modification on the island of Falkland, where there was no form of cellular closure.
And that they were able to establish this kind of connection for real success, because it shows that it is possible to create a network of space satellites that provide communication to the billions of cell phones that are already on the market. This milestone has helped Lynk work with over 30 operators around the world to create his own space network.
Lynk's goal is to be able to provide inexpensive mobile communication in these parts of the world where traditional operators do not have access, in addition to provide the network with emergency alerts. Today, mobile emergency services work through SMS messages, so the company hopes that its satellite network can work to send notifications when there is no availability.
In addition to the covered outer areas, emergency messages from the atmosphere have the potential to remain effective even in cases of natural disasters, in which the poles of the earth may be damaged. Any development that contributes to the communication development of these situations will be welcome.
