AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASTS) is a satellite telecommunications company focused on building a space-based broadband cellular network designed to connect standard, unmodified mobile devices directly to low-Earth-orbit satellites, bypassing the need for conventional terrestrial infrastructure. The company went public in April 2021 through a de-SPAC merger with New Providence Acquisition Corp., a blank-check vehicle sponsored by New Providence Capital Management. Operating in the emerging space-based mobile broadband sector, AST SpaceMobile has since progressed from development stage toward commercial satellite operations, deploying its BlueBird constellation across successive launch campaigns. The company filed a Form 8-K with the SEC on August 10, 2026. Sign up at SpacDesk for complete filing history, deal analytics, and real-time data on ASTS and hundreds of other SPAC transactions.
