    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced a modification in how it will handle certain applications for the 470-512 MHz T-Band spectrum. Originally, applications were paused because the T-Band frequencies were expected to be reallocated. Now, after a new law negated the reallocation, the FCC will resume processing applications for renewing existing licenses and processing other pending applications. Additionally, the FCC will allow a period during which applicants and coordinators can prepare new applications, followed by a time frame when certain applications will be accepted from existing license holders only. These changes aim to enhance access to T-Band channels without unnecessary delays.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC is going to start looking at and deciding on certain radio requests that were on hold because of a change in laws about how some special radio waves, called the T-Band, are used. They're going to let people who already have licenses make requests first, before any new people.

    Reading Time:about 70 minutes

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has implemented new rules to manage the use of certain frequency bands for commercial space launches. This is part of the Launch Communications Act, which requires the FCC to regulate spectrum usage for space operations, ensuring cooperation between various users to avoid interference. The 2360-2395 MHz band has now been allocated for space launch operations, with specific technical and licensing rules to ensure the protection of existing users. These new rules aim to streamline the licensing and coordination process for space launches, making it simpler and more efficient for new and existing space launch providers.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC has made new rules to share certain radio waves safely for rocket launches, so they don't mess up other important uses. They're trying to make it easier for companies to send rockets into space without causing problems.
