Jio’s ambitious 1,600-satellite internet plan just cleared a major hurdle! India’s IN-SPACe deemed it “technically sound,” paving the way for a homegrown rival to Starlink. With a planned 4.5-5 Tbps capacity, Jio aims to bring high-speed internet to India’s remotest areas. Expect test flights by 2027 and services around 2028, with the full network by 2035. This could revolutionize connectivity!
