Musk tipped to launch Galileo replacement as Putin BANS UK and withholds funds

“This money, due to force majeure circumstances that have arisen as a result of the aggressive policy of the West and the sanctions that are applied against Russia, this money will remain in Russia.”

The UK’s OneWeb network, while currently carrying out different functions to Galileo, has been tipped to one day rival the EU’s network. 

It is a constellation of low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites that beam signals in 3G, 5G, LTE and Wi-Fi for high-speed Internet access to all corners of the globe. 

Mr Morris, who is the Chairman of the Parliamentary Space Committee, added that OneWeb is currently looking for new partners who can launch their satellites.
