High throughput satellite owners breathe a sigh of relief as I-29e probe concludes

摘要

The conclusion that Intelsat's (NYSE:I) I-29e loss in April appears to be an isolated incident is a boost for satellite connectivity, particularly for those with similar high-throughput spacecraft. A failure review board that included I-29e's manufacturer Boeing (NYSE:BA) said the satellite was either hit by solar weather-related electrostatic discharge, exacerbating an onboard harness flaw, or a micrometeoroid.
