A typical LEO deployment uses a constellation of fast-moving satellites that cover wide geographical areas with each satellite using a large number of beams to serve many subscribers.
Bigelow Aerospace transferred ownership of the BEAM module to NASA and NASA arranged for ATA Engineering to provide BEAM support services through the end of the ISS or 2032.
On 2021-12-10, NASA issued its intent to award a sole-source contract to ATA Engineering to handle BEAM engineering services.
