Customer demonstrations are planned to start in 2020, while full operations will commence from 2021. The first batch of six satellites was successfully launched by Arianespace from the Guiana Space Centre spaceport in French Guiana in February 2019. The initial ten satellites are being built at the OneWeb Satellites’ 4,600m² manufacturing facility in Toulouse, France, while mass production takes place at OneWeb’s new facility in Florida. The satellites are being built by OneWeb Satellites, a joint venture between Airbus and OneWeb (formerly WorldVu Satellites) and will operate in the near-polar low-earth orbit (LEO) at 1,200km altitude. OneWeb is a constellation of 900 small, ultra-high-performance communication satellites intended to provide affordable high-speed internet broadband services. ![]() ![]() OneWeb satellites will operate at the near-polar LEO at 1,200km altitude.
