Logos Space has filed an application with the FCC to build and launch 3,960 satellites to low Earth orbits between 860-925 kms and to operate in Ka, Q/V & E-bands.

Logos Space Services Inc. was founded in 2024 by Milo Medin, a former Google VP/Access Services.

It is proposing three phases of deployment: The first will be for 1092 satellites and enable Logos to serve enterprise customers. Logos will then follow up with additional launches and progressively increasing its capacity.

“After working for decades in building large terrestrial broadband infrastructure, I am returning to my NASA roots in satellite connectivity,” Medin wrote on social media. “Yesterday, we filed an application with the FCC to build and operate a new dual-use low Earth orbit satellite constellation, providing highly resilient multi-gigabit communications services across the globe and equipped with coherent optical crosslinks that reduce the need to transit terrestrial fibr.”

Its marketing mission states: “Demand for connectivity is growing, and enterprise customers—whether a large multinational corporation or a Navy Destroyer on the high seas—depend on robust, resilient connectivity solutions. Logos Space is purpose-built to serve the connectivity needs of the enterprise user, wherever they may be. We will help fill an important gap in the market, providing resilient, high-performance satellite-based connectivity services to enterprise customers.”

The plan, it says, is to provide satellites in orbit which are “resilient to electronic warfare”.

Also in the company is Rama Akella, and the company is backed by Thomas Tull’s US Innovative Technology fund.

“Increasingly, our space systems are being targeted by jamming, and in the future, all spectrum access will likely be contested,” said Milo Medin, the founder and CEO of Logos Space. “We engineered Logos Space’s LEO system with this in mind to withstand electronic warfare and provide the enhanced security that businesses and the US Government need for their mission-critical communications.”

Further funding details and build/launch commitments were not mentioned.
