What is AST SpaceMobile’s mission?

AST SpaceMobile is building the first and only space-based cellular broadband network accessible directly by standard, unmodified mobile phones. Our mission is to eliminate the connectivity gaps faced by today’s five billion mobile subscribers and finally bring broadband to the billions who remain unconnected around the world.

Why do we need space-based connectivity?

Reliable mobile coverage has become essential to modern life – not only for daily, personal communication, but also for accessing critical services such as remote education, healthcare, and jobs. Yet, more than 87% of the world’s surface is out of reach from traditional cell towers.  

AST SpaceMobile is working to close that gap. Our space-based technology is designed to connect the unconnected, bringing broadband access directly to standard mobile phones everywhere, even in the most remote areas. By democratizing access to the digital economy, we are not just connecting devices, we are connecting people and unlocking limitless potential. 

What is needed to access the service?

Your existing, everyday smartphone. No need for any special devices, software updates, or apps.
