Data Transport at Planetary Scale
By the end of this decade, millions of petabytes/year of data will need to be transmitted to, across, and from space.
Skyloom was founded to service this coming renaissance with the orbital infrastructure for fiberless internet. We are Earth’s first space-based telecommunications company.
We offer planetary-scale data transport services that massively increase bandwidth, availability and resiliency, while lowering latency and the overall cost of operations.
Our proprietary optical technology unlocks secure high-capacity connections, whether over our end-to-end multi-orbit data transport system, or within your own network.
