Russia plans to launch a massive satellite internet system called Rassvet starting this December. Roscosmos chief Dmitry Bakanov announced the project during a major economic forum in St. Petersburg. The space agency will work with Bureau 1440 to build and deploy these satellites across low Earth orbit. This ambitious program aims to bring high-speed internet access to every corner of Russia and beyond.

The satellite constellation will roll out in two main phases over the coming years. During the first stage, engineers will place 350 satellites into orbit around Earth. The second phase will expand the network to include 900 total satellites providing coverage. These devices will deliver broadband internet service to homes, businesses, airplanes and trains anywhere on the planet.

Commercial internet service through Rassvet should begin operations during 2027. Space officials expect to have more than 250 satellites working at that time. The complete network of 900 satellites should be finished and operational before 2035. Russian citizens will gain reliable internet access even in remote areas where traditional cables cannot reach.
