Rhea-AI Summary

Viasat (NASDAQ: VSAT) has partnered with Blue Origin to demonstrate its InRange launch telemetry relay service on two future New Glenn rocket missions. This collaboration is part of NASA's Communications Services Project (CSP), aiming to transition from NASA's Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) system to commercial SATCOM solutions.

The InRange technology utilizes Viasat's global L-band satellite network to provide real-time telemetry data during launches, enabling continuous beyond-line-of-sight communications and eliminating ground communication "blackouts". The first demonstration flight is expected in 2025, followed by a full service demonstration in 2026.
