 The Navy's fourth MEO satellite is scheduled to launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, August 31st. MEO's, or Mobile User Objective System, is a communication system using satellites and ground stations to significantly improve communication for U.S. forces on the move. Three critical points for the MEO's program is, first, its operational supporting the warfighter every day. Secondly, it brings enhanced capabilities over the legacy system. And thirdly, it is critical for the tactical warfighter. Five satellites in total will be launched to complete the network. MEO's is a global system and it allows the communicator to make a call from, say, D.C. to the Middle East, all in one system. That's capability is brand new, and with that capability it brings a lot of opportunity. For updates on the launch, visit their Facebook page.
