Manifest Space: Space’s First Phone Call with AST SpaceMobile CEO Abel Avellan 6/8/23

With Amazon reportedly pursuing the wireless service business, big tech is turning to broadening broadband services. As giants like Amazon and Apple invest in big satellite constellations, smaller players such as AST SpaceMobile stand to benefit. The AT&T-backed satellite company recently conducted the first-ever phone call from space to everyday mobile devices using its prototype satellite. Chairman and CEO Abel Avellan joins Morgan to discuss the recent milestone and what it means for the broader satellite industry.
