One of the O3B satellites, contributing to SES's medium-Earth-orbit broadband network. The constellation's equatorial orbit means it only ever serves the band of Earth near the equator — a deliberate design tradeoff, since that's precisely where the 'Other 3 Billion' underserved population the constellation was named for actually lives.
