Experts say ground-based radar is unable to track about 70% of aircraft flights. But that has been true since the 1940s. This is one reason the Malaysia Airways Flight 370 plane has not been found. Now, there are plans to deploy aircraft tracking satellites into space so that no plane will ever be “lost” again. Iridium, a satellite communications company, plans to have 66 new satellites orbiting the planet. They call the system of satellites the NEXT constellation. A constellation is a group of stars. Iridium will begin the project in December. The new satellites will be able to receive an airplane’s location signal every few seconds. Don Thoma is the CEO of the aircraft tracking company Aireon. He says MH370 showed the limits of the current tracking system. The new satellites’ receivers will update every few seconds. They will get information from equipment in the pilot area of the aircraft. Iridium will check the satellites from a control center in Virginia. Aircraft safety rules require large distances between planes since they cannot currently be tracked over entire oceans. But once the Iridium NEXT satellites are setup in 3 years, planes will be able to fly closer to each other. Airlines will then be able to save money on fuel. Passengers will see more flights and more direct flights to locations around the world. The company is also building an emergency operations center 10 kilometers north of Shannon Airport in Ireland.
