Solstar Demonstrates Successful Wi-Fi Communications During NASA Proximity Operations

GuideForce secured widespread media and industry recognition for Solstar Space through a coordinated communications campaign highlighting the successful use of the Solstar Deke Space Communicator during NASA’s S10-R5 proximity operations demonstration. The achievement demonstrated how commercial wireless connectivity and data relay services can extend communications capabilities for astronauts and space vehicles operating beyond traditional mission architectures. Coverage emphasized the Deke Space Communicator’s role in advancing practical, user-friendly space communications and underscored Solstar’s vision of making space as connected as life on Earth.
The story resonated across both mainstream and specialized aerospace, satellite, technology, and business media. Leading industry publications including SpaceNews, Via Satellite, TalkSatellite, Orbital Wire and Satelium highlighted the significance of the demonstration for the future of commercial space communications. National and regional news outlets such as NASA, the Albuquerque Journal, and Albuquerque Business First showcased the milestone’s importance to the growing New Mexico aerospace ecosystem. Additional coverage from Electronics Weekly, Behind the Black, StockTI, News Today World and numerous other outlets further amplified awareness among investors, engineers, satellite operators, policymakers and the broader space community. Collectively, the coverage positioned Solstar as an innovative leader in space-based internet and communications services while reinforcing the company’s momentum as it develops next-generation connectivity solutions for human and robotic spaceflight.
“We are proud to work alongside NASA, Momentus and Iridium to demonstrate a new level of connectivity for spacecraft operating in close proximity. This important program shows how Solstar’s technology can help spacecraft stay connected and deliver critical mission data in near real-time to flight controllers, space operators and mission operations engineers, laying the groundwork for more capable and coordinated activity in space.”
