I am writing\nthis email to introduce Outernet to AMSAT.\n\nOuternet broadcasts a DVB-S signal\n<https://wiki.outernet.is/wiki/Coverage_and_transponder_settings> from six\ndifferent satellites covering 99% of humans on Earth. We created this\ninformation service to reach the 4.3 billion people who do not have\nInternet access and designed it to overcome the problems the Internet\npresents, namely download speed and recurring cost. Our datacast is\ncompletely free to receive, our bitrate is 90 Kbps (~1 GB/day of content),\nand you can even build your own receiver with a Raspberry Pi\n<http://store.outernet.is/>.\n\nRight now, the content we send is curated by us and a group of editors but\nwe are working on a Reddit/Wikipedia/YouTube mashup where the contents of\nour broadcast can be decided publicly. Currently, we broadcast Wikipedia,\n30,000+ ebooks, PLOS One journal articles, Khan Academy, CK12 textbooks,\nmusic from SoundCloud, and more.\n\nI want to invite this community to be involved in Outernet and help us\nbuild this project. Our current focus is on developing channels to get\ndevices into schools and generally into countries/areas where Internet\npenetration is very low.\n\nOur forum <http://discuss.outernet.is> is very active with users and\nOuternet staff. Please stop by!\n\nAvidly,\nThane\n\n-- \nThane Richard <https://twitter.com/thanerichard>\nContent and Business Development Lead\nOuternet <http://outernet.is/>\n\n*Outernet in the press:* WIRED\n<http://www.wired.com/2015/07/plan-beam-web-3-billion-unconnected-humans/>,\nInc.com <http://www.inc.com/dev-aujla/a-library-for-all.html>, TechCrunch\n<http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/13/outernet-joins-the-space-race-for-internet-accessibility/>\n, Gizmodo\n<http://gizmodo.com/what-is-the-outernet-and-is-it-the-future-of-the-intern-1659647614>\n, BBC <http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-29593734>, CNN\n<http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/11/tech/internet-for-everyone/>, Fast Company\n<http://www.fastcolabs.com/3027663/all-about-google-loons-low-cost-space-based-competitor-outernet>\n, LA Times\n<http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-g-outernet-explained-20140808-htmlstory.html>\n, Motherboard\n<http://motherboard.vice.com/read/how-the-outernet-plans-to-broadcast-free-internet-from-space>\n\nOur receiver, Lighthouse, is now available!
