We all look up into the night sky and are amazed by the twinkling little lights buzzing around Earth's orbit. Human-made wonders are shooting invisible signal across the globe in the blink of an eye. Have you ever wondered about sending messages into space? Have you ever wanted to build a platform in remote locations but didn't know how you were going to connect to it?

In our connected world of fiber internet and cellular technology, it is easy to take for granted the readily available access to the internet, but there are a wealth of use cases in remote destinations where cell signal just doesn't go. So what do you do? Use satellites!

This presentation will go over how you can quickly build your very own satellite communication system using the Iridium network and Arduino. Armed with this knowledge you'll be set to take off into the exciting world of bringing communication anywhere in the world.
