The contract was announced Oct. 11.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration will focus on Skyrora\u2019s suborbital Skylark L launch vehicle, demonstrating InRange connectivity over Viasat\u2019s global Elera L-band satellite communication networks. The initial stage of the project will include Viasat conducting ground testing of the InRange solution with Skyrora\u2019s launch vehicle system. CGI will undertake a market study and analysis of ground stations to determine the commercial potential of the solution within the wider launch service provider market. InRange will enable Skyrora to achieve continuous transmission of telemetry data during flight, from launch to payload deployment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConnectivity by satellite communications will improve the safety and services available to launchers and greatly expand the possibilities available for launch.
