I absolutely love this project by UK company, One Web. Their aim is to create a huge constellation of 650 mini satellites to bring global internet coverage to the world by 2021. They are now up to 74 with this latest payload of 34, launched from Kazakhstan on Saturday.

Others companies are also attempting to do the same thing but this company is more independent than Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk's similar schemes and I hope becomes a great success.

What's so great about this is that it will bring the internet to those who are not connected and so makes the web a more inclusive place. The internet should be for the whole of mankind, not just wealthy first world nations and I for one, cannot wait to meet all the soon to be connected global citizens!

Exciting times amidst the current problems!
