The satellite business is much larger than many of us realise. This talk will describe the history of geostationary communications satellites, from concept to implementation, before concentrating on the operations of British company Inmarsat, and the role that it was able to play in the mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. The speaker, Emanuele Guariglia, is Director, Earth Stations Engineering at Inmarsat.
