Published: Feb. 10, 2021, 4 p.m.

In this episode of Constellations we discuss the growing push into Low Earth Orbit with new non-GEO satellite mega constellations that are bringing flat panel antennas to the forefront. Not a new technology, these fast-switching antennas historically have been only used by the military due to their complexity and cost.
