But we saved everything 🙂.

VIASAT INC recently completed deployment of its ViaSat-3 F3 satellite components and began in-orbit testing to expand coverage over the Asia-Pacific region, according to a previous report. The company is also leading the European Space Agency’s Moonlight program, which aims to establish real-time lunar communications using compact satellite terminals, as highlighted in an earlier update. These initiatives reflect VIASAT INC’s ongoing involvement in advanced satellite and communications projects.
