About Iridium:
Based in Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A., Iridium Satellite LLC, a privately held company, is the only provider of truly global satellite voice and data communications solutions with complete coverage of the entire Earth including oceans, airways and even Polar Regions. Iridium delivers reliable, secure, real-time, mission-critical communications services to and from areas where landlines and terrestrial-based wireless services are either unavailable or unreliable.
Iridium's constellation consists of 66 low-earth orbiting (LEO),
cross-linked satellites operating as a fully meshed network and
supported by multiple in-orbit spares. It is the largest commercial
satellite constellation in the world.
Iridium is also planning for the future sustainability of its
constellation, making major investments in network enhancements and
launching the Iridium NEXT initiative, its next generation satellite
constellation, which will be fully operational by 2016.
