<p>该公司正在开发一个基于太空的宽带蜂窝网络，可能会与埃隆·马斯克的 Starlink 相抗衡。</p>
<p>由于上个月发生的蓝色起源发射事件，AST SpaceMobile 的基于太空的蜂窝宽带网络计划被推迟。</p>
<p>卫星制造商 AST SpaceMobile 已确定下次发射的日期，因为将更多卫星送入太空是该公司开发与埃隆·马斯克的 SpaceX 旗下 Starlink 相竞争的蜂窝宽带服务的最新一步。</p>
<p>AST SpaceMobile（ASTS）周二表示，其 BlueBird 8、9 和 10 号卫星计划于 6 月 17 日从佛罗里达州的卡纳维拉尔角搭载 SpaceX（SPCX）猎鹰 9 号火箭发射入低地球轨道。该公司曾表示发射将在 6 月中旬进行，但现在已透露具体日期。</p>
<p>将更多卫星送入低地球轨道对 AST SpaceMobile 至关重要，该公司正在开发与 SpaceX 的 Starlink 及其他竞争对手相抗衡的服务。AST 需要至少发射 45 颗卫星进入 LEO 才能开始提供一些服务。目前，该公司只有少量卫星在地球轨道上。</p>
<p>AST 总裁 Scott Wisniewski 在一份声明中表示：“每发射一颗 BlueBird 卫星，就扩大了我们支持无缝太空宽带移动连接直接到日常智能手机的能力。”</p>
<p>这一公告使 AST SpaceMobile 的股价在周二早盘上涨了 7%，但随后这些涨幅被削减。根据最后的检查，该股较周一收盘下跌了 2%。</p>
<p>虽然在大多数行业中，一家公司支付另一家公司帮助其推出竞争产品是不寻常的，但在航天行业并不罕见。高昂的火箭发射成本历来是进入市场的主要障碍，而 SpaceX 则在努力降低进入轨道的成本，推出了猎鹰 9 号火箭。</p>
<p>由于蓝色起源的 New Glenn 火箭在卡纳维拉尔角测试中爆炸，AST 本月的发射变得至关重要。这是因为 AST 还与蓝色起源合作，将其卫星送入太空。部分由于爆炸，AST 预计其商业服务的发射将延迟三到六个月，现在可能会在 2027 年上半年进行，William Blair 分析师 Louie DiPalma 表示。</p>
<p>杰夫·贝索斯拥有的蓝色起源计划在年底前恢复 New Glenn 的飞行，这是一个雄心勃勃的时间表。如果能够实现，这将对 AST 和亚马逊（AMZN）都是好消息，因为两者都与 New Glenn 签订了发射合同，但也可以依赖其他合作伙伴。</p>
<p>Wisniewski 上个月在与分析师的电话会议中表示，AST 已安排了与 SpaceX 和蓝色起源的 “少量” 发射。该公司还在探索与其他供应商的发射合作，如洛克希德·马丁（LMT）和波音（BA）的联合发射联盟。</p>
<p>与蓝色起源共享创始人的亚马逊已为其卫星确保了超过 100 次发射——这是该公司发射基于太空的蜂窝宽带网络以与 Starlink、AST 等竞争所需的基础设施。根据亚马逊的说法，蓝色起源被计划发射约 30% 的合同卫星，该公司还与 Arianespace 和 ULA 签订了发射合同。</p>
<p>负责监管基于太空的蜂窝宽带行业的联邦通信委员会（FCC）上周五对亚马逊及其与 Starlink 和 AST 竞争的努力给予了支持。该监管机构豁免了亚马逊在 7 月 30 日之前发射其计划卫星星座一半的截止日期。该公司请求延长，部分原因是发射供应商的延迟。</p>
<p>然而，FCC 还对豁免添加了 “有意义的条件”，以鼓励 “快速建设和发射”。该机构表示，亚马逊将在 7 月 30 日之后暂时失去其卫星的优先地位，直到 20 个月过去或其星座的一半投入运营。</p>
<p>SpaceX 反对这一延期，认为亚马逊的请求是 “其最新的策略，旨在以牺牲他人为代价获得特殊待遇。”</p>
<p>SpaceX 副总裁 David Goldman 在 3 月的一封信中写道：“以目前每年发射 1% 的卫星的速度，亚马逊的初始系统发射将需要一个世纪，而后续系统的发射将需要几个世纪。但当然，亚马逊只希望规则适用于其竞争对手。”</p>

<p>AST SpaceMobile 宣布其 BlueBird 8、9 和 10 号卫星将于 6 月 17 日通过 SpaceX 的 Falcon 9 发射。这一步对建立其与 Starlink 竞争的蜂窝宽带网络至关重要，至少需要 45 颗卫星在低地球轨道上运行。该股票最初上涨 7%，但最终收盘下跌 2%。最近 Blue Origin 火箭的爆炸事件已将 AST 的商业服务推迟三到六个月，可能将发射时间推迟至 2027 年初</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><p>由于上个月发生的蓝色起源发射事件，AST SpaceMobile 的基于太空的蜂窝宽带网络计划被推迟。</p>
</div><p>Satellite maker AST SpaceMobile has set a date for its next launch, as getting more satellites into space is the company's latest step toward developing a cellular broadband service to rival Starlink, a division of Elon Musk's SpaceX.</p>

</div><p>AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) said Tuesday that its BlueBird 8, 9 and 10 satellites are scheduled to be launched into low-Earth orbit as soon as June 17 from Cape Canaveral, Fla, aboard a SpaceX (SPCX) Falcon 9 rocket. The company had said the launch would take place sometime in mid-June, but has now revealed the specific date.</p>

</div><p>Getting more satellites into low-Earth orbit is critical for AST SpaceMobile, which is working on developing a service rivaling SpaceX's Starlink, among other competitors. AST will need to launch a least 45 satellites into LEO to begin offering some services. Right now, the company has just a handful of satellites orbiting the Earth.</p>

</div><p>&#34;Each BlueBird satellite launched expands our ability to support seamless space-based broadband mobile connectivity directly to everyday smartphones,&#34; AST President Scott Wisniewski said in a statement.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>AST 总裁 Scott Wisniewski 在一份声明中表示：“每发射一颗 BlueBird 卫星，就扩大了我们支持无缝太空宽带移动连接直接到日常智能手机的能力。”</p>
</div><p>The announcement sent AST SpaceMobile shares up 7% in early trading on Tuesday before those gains were pared back. The stock was down 2% from Monday's close, at last check.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>这一公告使 AST SpaceMobile 的股价在周二早盘上涨了 7%，但随后这些涨幅被削减。根据最后的检查，该股较周一收盘下跌了 2%。</p>
</div><p>While, in most industries, it's unusual for one company to pay another to help it get a competing product off the ground, it's not uncommon in the space industry. High rocket-launch costs have historically been the key barrier to entry, and SpaceX has led the effort to make it cheaper to get into orbit with its Falcon 9.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>虽然在大多数行业中，一家公司支付另一家公司帮助其推出竞争产品是不寻常的，但在航天行业并不罕见。高昂的火箭发射成本历来是进入市场的主要障碍，而 SpaceX 则在努力降低进入轨道的成本，推出了猎鹰 9 号火箭。</p>
</div><p>AST's launch scheduled for this month became critically important for the company after Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket exploded during testing in Cape Canaveral. That's because AST is also partnering with Blue Origin to get its satellites into space. In part due to the explosion, AST expects a three- to six-month delay in launching its commercial service, which could now happen in the first half of 2027 according to William Blair analyst Louie DiPalma.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>由于蓝色起源的 New Glenn 火箭在卡纳维拉尔角测试中爆炸，AST 本月的发射变得至关重要。这是因为 AST 还与蓝色起源合作，将其卫星送入太空。部分由于爆炸，AST 预计其商业服务的发射将延迟三到六个月，现在可能会在 2027 年上半年进行，William Blair 分析师 Louie DiPalma 表示。</p>
</div><p>The Jeff Bezos-owned Blue Origin plans to return New Glenn to flight by the end of the year, an ambitious timeline. If it can pull that off, it would be good news for both AST and Amazon (AMZN), which have each contracted launches with New Glenn but can also rely on other partners.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>杰夫·贝索斯拥有的蓝色起源计划在年底前恢复 New Glenn 的飞行，这是一个雄心勃勃的时间表。如果能够实现，这将对 AST 和亚马逊（AMZN）都是好消息，因为两者都与 New Glenn 签订了发射合同，但也可以依赖其他合作伙伴。</p>
</div><p>AST had lined up a &#34;handful&#34; of launches with both SpaceX and Blue Origin, Wisniewski said last month on a call with analysts. The company is also exploring launches with other providers, such as Lockheed Martin (LMT) and Boeing's (BA) United Launch Alliance.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Wisniewski 上个月在与分析师的电话会议中表示，AST 已安排了与 SpaceX 和蓝色起源的 “少量” 发射。该公司还在探索与其他供应商的发射合作，如洛克希德·马丁（LMT）和波音（BA）的联合发射联盟。</p>
</div><p>Amazon, which shares a founder with Blue Origin, has secured more than 100 launches for its satellites - infrastructure necessary for the company to launch a space-based cellular broadband network to compete with Starlink, AST and others. Blue Origin has been slated to launch some 30% of those contracted satellites, according to Amazon, which has contracted launches with Arianespace and ULA as well.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>与蓝色起源共享创始人的亚马逊已为其卫星确保了超过 100 次发射——这是该公司发射基于太空的蜂窝宽带网络以与 Starlink、AST 等竞争所需的基础设施。根据亚马逊的说法，蓝色起源被计划发射约 30% 的合同卫星，该公司还与 Arianespace 和 ULA 签订了发射合同。</p>
</div><p>The Federal Communications Commission, which oversees the space-based cellular broadband industry, gave a boost to Amazon and its efforts to rival Starlink and AST last Friday. The regulator waived its deadline of July 30 for Amazon to launch half of its planned satellite constellation. The company requested the extension, citing in part delays from launch providers.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>负责监管基于太空的蜂窝宽带行业的联邦通信委员会（FCC）上周五对亚马逊及其与 Starlink 和 AST 竞争的努力给予了支持。该监管机构豁免了亚马逊在 7 月 30 日之前发射其计划卫星星座一半的截止日期。该公司请求延长，部分原因是发射供应商的延迟。</p>
</div><p>However, the FCC also added &#34;meaningful conditions&#34; to the waiver to encourage &#34;rapid builds and launches.&#34; Amazon will temporarily lose priority status for its satellites after July 30 until either 20 months have passed or half of its constellation is operational, the agency said.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>然而，FCC 还对豁免添加了 “有意义的条件”，以鼓励 “快速建设和发射”。该机构表示，亚马逊将在 7 月 30 日之后暂时失去其卫星的优先地位，直到 20 个月过去或其星座的一半投入运营。</p>
</div><p>SpaceX opposed the extension, arguing in a Feb. 3 letter to the FCC that Amazon's request was &#34;just its latest gambit to get special treatment at the expense of others.&#34;</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>SpaceX 反对这一延期，认为亚马逊的请求是 “其最新的策略，旨在以牺牲他人为代价获得特殊待遇。”</p>
</div><p>&#34;At its current rate of deploying 1% of its satellites per year, Amazon is on pace to take a century to launch its initial system and centuries more to launch its next systems,&#34; David Goldman, SpaceX's vice president of satellite policy, wrote in a separate letter in March. &#34;But of course, Amazon only ever wants the rules to apply to its competitors.&#34;</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>SpaceX 副总裁 David Goldman 在 3 月的一封信中写道：“以目前每年发射 1% 的卫星的速度，亚马逊的初始系统发射将需要一个世纪，而后续系统的发射将需要几个世纪。但当然，亚马逊只希望规则适用于其竞争对手。”</p>
