Taking control of space is a priority for billionaires and world powers. Whoever moves fastest will be able to dominate information and communications

It seems that space has become the playground of big tech billionaires. It seems that only Jeff Bezos can bring SpaceX owner Musk down from his cloud. “Amazon has enormous potential. And, in the end, the great competition comes down to the two magnates,” observes Stephane Terranova, the CEO of Thales Alenia Space in Spain. Bezos plans to provide Wi-Fi coverage through 3,236 satellites in low orbit. According to Amazon, this gives them the possibility of “flying the safest [network] constellation with the fewest number of satellites.”
