intelsat 33e satellite fragmentation disrupts global broadband services and raises debris concerns
On October 19, 2024, the Intelsat 33e satellite experienced a catastrophic malfunction in geostationary orbit, breaking into over 57 pieces and disrupting broadband services across Asia, Europe, and Africa. This incident particularly affected sectors reliant on high-throughput connectivity, including inflight Wi-Fi and maritime communications.Intelsat is currently assessing its fleet capacity and coordinating with third-party providers to restore services efficiently. The cause of the satellite's sudden breakdown is under investigation, following a history of technical difficulties since its launch in 2016.
Seems like the connection with the server has been lost. It can be due to poor or broken network. Please hang on while we're trying to reconnect...
Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
