FIRST EVER OneWeb Launch by SpaceX! One web launch vlog!

Hey friends, What a amazing launch this was for SpaceX and humanity working or living in areas without connectivity to the world wide web. SpaceX performed its first mission for OneWeb on Thursday December 8th 2022 at 5:27PM (EST) , sending 40 satellites to Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) on a Falcon 9 rocket with booster (B1069). The mission was notable in two ways-it was SpaceX’s first launch for Starlink broadband competitor OneWeb, and OneWeb’s second mission since resuming its launch campaign after Russia’s war in Ukraine stymied its Soyuz missions from Kazakhstan.
The Falcon 9 rocket took off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 first stage landed on Landing Zone 1 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
This launch brings OneWeb’s constellation to 502 satellites, almost 80% of its first-generation constellation, putting the company on track to deliver global coverage in 2023.
OneWeb said this launch allows the company to expand service and initiate additional connectivity solutions soon for partners across the U.S., Europe and much of the Middle East and Asia-all points north of the 35th parallel. It will also enable coverage between the South Pole and the 35th parallel south, for Southern Australia, South Africa and parts of South America.
SpaceX and OneWeb are competitors, as SpaceX operates the Starlink LEO broadband constellation and has launched more than 3,500 satellites for the constellation. While OneWeb does not sell direct-to-consumer like Starlink does, both constellations are targeting government, enterprise and mobility markets like aviation. Yet SpaceX seems open to launch business from competitors. In 2021, SpaceX COO Gwynne Shotwell talked about the dynamic of launching competitors in an interview with Via Satellite, arguing that she sees launch and Starlink as two very separate businesses. “To not leverage what I think is the best launch capability on the planet right now, at our low prices-seems to me like companies are shooting themselves in the foot,” she said, addressing potential competitors that choose not to launch with SpaceX.
Congratulations to SpaceX and Oneweb for this team achievement made to help humanity and to move technology forward!

How do we get you more subscribers. Your video edits are very thorough and I can appreciate the work it takes to put them together. I'll mention you in the comments of the other space channels I watch. BTW I'm sending this comment via Starlink. It works pretty good except we're in a canyon and once in a while there isn't a satellite over head and we lose the internet for about 5 minutes.

Fuegofool, THANK YOU for the comment my friend! I appreciate your kind words. 😊 Where are you located if you don't mind me asking? And also, remember Starlink is upgrading to new satellites 2.0, so perhaps that will help in the future. Keep me posted, would be very cool to keep in touch. Have a great weekend! 👍🏼

Is OneWeb improving their service by quietly standing back and seeing what Starlink users are complaining about to stay ahead of the "Web Game"?
