12:01 AM EDT, 09/10/2026 (MT Newswires) -- European satellite company Eutelsat Communications (ETL.PA, ETL.L) and Skynopy partnered to develop Global AKAR, a software-defined ground infrastructure for satellite operations, in-orbit services, orbital data centers, and telecommunication services. The project aims to launch over 100 antennas across targeted locations by 2029, achieving up to 10 gigabits per second throughput and reduced data latency, according to a Wednesday release. The Global AKAR service may also support defense and other sensitive applications thanks to its secure architecture and interfaces.
