The satellite will provide extended connectivity over the region for Thaicom\u2019s customers and partners across the Asia Pacific.<\/p>\n<p>THAICOM-10 will be launched on SpaceX\u2019s Falcon 9 rocket, the world\u2019s first and only orbital class rocket capable of reuse, from Florida, USA. The satellite will operate at the 119.5 degrees East orbital slot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patompob (Nile) Suwansiri, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Thaicom<\/strong> said that \u201cThaicom has a long-standing partnership with SpaceX, based on trust in their cutting-edge technology and Falcon 9\u2019s unrivaled reliability. Our relationship started with the successful launch of the THAICOM 6 satellite in 2014, which was one of the earliest Falcon 9 missions. This was followed by the launches of other satellites in Thaicom\u2019s fleet, which strengthened our continued trust in SpaceX. With this agreement, Thaicom will be able to optimize our investment and achieve reliable, cost-effective access to space for our THAICOM-10 satellite.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thaicom Public Company Limited, an Asian satellite and space tech company, has announced that its subsidiary, Space Tech Innovation Limited (STI), has signed an agreement with SpaceX, a US company that designs, manufactures and launches the world\u2019s most advanced rockets and spacecraft, for the launch of THAICOM-10, Thaicom\u2019s upcoming, next generation software-defined, high throughput satellite [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[26,25,20],"class_list":["post-6454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-ground","tag-launch","tag-satellite"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6454"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6454"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6454\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starpath.global\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
