"SpaceX and Viasat compete for satellite broadband dominance with successful launches"
Viasat has launched the first of its ViaSat-3 trio of satellites, which will provide over 1 Terabit per second of capacity, more than triple its ViaSat-2 predecessor. The new satellites will give Viasat "a lot of flexibility" in where it aims the bandwidth, particularly in the in-flight WiFi market, with multiple major commercial airlines already on Viasat's roster of clients. The launch brings a new punch to Viasat's network, helping it grow its share of the satellite communications market and bolster its existing position against the low Earth orbit challengers such as SpaceX's Starlink, OneWeb and Amazon's Kuiper.
