So if you want to own your satellite, you can now approach United Spaceports and conduct business with them. According to the space firm, it’ll cost customers $5.5 million to have a satellite launched into space on their behalf.

The satellite in question is the Black Star 1000 military private satellite, which comes with a lot of features. This satellite isn’t like other commercial satellites in terms of its size, as it is the size of a small refrigerator that packs a few features.

It comes with an AI-powered Nvidia data centre, a remote sensor for taking images of Earth, a telescope for viewing outer space, and military-grade secure satellite communications, just to mention a few. This satellite will maintain a connection to a ground station that will help maintain it while gathering data.

For the average customer, they might make more use of the communication and imagery features. So if you have $5.5 million lying around and want your satellite, United Spaceports can help you make your dreams come true.

The ability to own a personal satellite can help businesses around the world in various ways. One of the benefits of this, according to Rob Lauer, CEO of United Spaceports, is more secure data and communications for businesses or individuals.

He also says that “Early adopters will be the pioneers of a new space age—one where digital sovereignty, privacy, and security are not just promised, but guaranteed.” Lauer is advertising these personal satellites as a way to ensure that customers’ personal or business data stays private.

United Spaceports is already taking deposits from customers for the launch of these satellites, which will take place in two years’ time. The satellites will launch aboard a SpaceX rocket into low-Earth orbit (LEO) once ready for use.
