Pre-Positioned Satellites

Iridium Satellite is promoting a special communications package for first-responders to use during widespread emergency incidents, when normal communications channels are disrupted. A company press release notes the introduction of U.S. Senate legislation to require the pre-positioning of communications gear in likely natural disaster areas, possibly including Iridium’s gear. Not surprisingly, the company said it supports S. 2686, and notes the hurricane season starts June 1st. Read Iridium’s press release here.
