Telesat Lightspeed Passes Design Review to Compete with Starlink in LEO

Telesat's Lightspeed constellation has successfully passed its early design review, advancing towards a critical design review for its 750-kilogram satellites. With plans for 198 satellites and 14 launches contracted from SpaceX starting in mid-2026, Lightspeed aims to provide around 10 terabits per second of capacity, targeting enterprise and government markets. As competition intensifies with Starlink and Amazon's Project Kuiper, Telesat's CEO emphasizes the growing demand for multiple providers in the expanding LEO broadband market.

SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell emphasized the importance of competition in the space industry, noting that the satellite broadband market is vast and ripe for new entrants. With nearly 5 million Starlink customers and 7,000 satellites in orbit, SpaceX continues to dominate while developing the Starship rocket, which aims to replace Falcon 9 and Dragon. Shotwell expressed optimism about future growth and the potential for other companies to catch up.
