Telesat -- Harris Selects Telstar 11N As Platform For Maritime Broadband

Telesat, the world's fourth largest fixed satellite services operator, has announced that Harris Corporation, a provider of VSAT systems and managed satellite services for domestic and international customers, has signed a multi-year agreement for Atlantic Ocean Region capacity on Telesat's new Telstar 11N satellite. Harris Maritime Communications Services (MCS) selected Telstar 11N to launch its next generation maritime broadband services.

You will be able to communicate as easily at sea as on land.
The Communications century is still going strong in the West and China/India will have a tough time catching up there.
