Forbes: This Billionaire Immigrant Is Racing Elon Musk To Connect Your Phone From Space
Abel Avellan's AST SpaceMobile aims to disrupt the satellite internet market by providing broadband directly to smartphones, competing against SpaceX's Starlink and Amazon's Project Kuiper.

While Starlink focuses on fixed internet connections, AST's model seeks to connect users in remote areas without the need for expensive satellite phones. The company has secured partnerships with major telecoms and aims to provide affordable service, potentially tapping into a vast market of 2.6 billion people lacking reliable internet access.
