Japan Just Put AST SpaceMobile on the Map
is getting fresh attention after Japan selected a Rakuten-AST joint venture for a satellite initiative worth up to roughly $1 billion in government funding.

Could become one of the biggest beneficiaries of the global satellite boom?
AST SpaceMobile could be a serious satellite contender if it can turn these global partnerships into scalable commercial growth.
Yeah, that’s where I land too. Oracle has the opportunity, but I’d rather see the growth show up consistently in the numbers before getting too excited.
