Hispasat launches Amazonas 4A ready for World Cup
Juan Fernandez Gonzalez | 25-03-2014
Hispasat has successfully launched the Amazonas 4A satellite from the European base in French Guyana and says it’s ready to offer full coverage of Brazil’s World Cup this summer.
This was the third time Hispasat had attempted to launch the satellite, on board an Arianne 5 rocket – the launch was initially scheduled for 6 November 2013. The satellite was launched this time together with the SES Astra 5B.
According to EFE, quoting Elena Pisonero, president of Hispasat, the group intends to consolidate its position in Latin America. “We have reached a solid position in the region in order to cover the important events that are taking place there,” explained Pisonero.
“We have a renewed project and have launched three satellites in two years, not only to compete in Europe and LATAM, but also in Asia,” he added.
Amazonas 4A was built by the US company Orbital Sciences in collaboration with the Spanish space industry. Hispasat brings TV and Internet to over five million houses in Latin America, one million in Portugal and 200,000 in Spain.
