communities can have access thanks to this project, to vital
information accessible through the Web”

Solar Energy & Carbon Emissions
After launch, one satellite can transmit to 1/3 of the earth’s surface for 12-15 years using nothing but solar energy
All the satellites in orbit today together use less energy than 1 terrestrial TV mast
Once in orbit, 1 satellite can provide 150 HDTV channels across the entire EU & release ZERO CO2

The Launch
Latest rocket technology uses “clean” O2 & H2 from ethanol/ sea water
Only 10% of solid rocket fuel is oil-based
The impressive smoke is mostly water vapour!
