India is set to launch a groundbreaking American communications satellite that will allow direct phone calls from space without any extra equipment. This marks the first time an American company, AST SpaceMobile from Texas, is using an Indian rocket to launch such a large satellite. The satellite aims to revolutionize mobile communication by providing global connectivity, especially in remote and underserved areas, making voice calls possible directly through regular mobile phones. This milestone highlights India’s growing role in the global space industry.
