Space is no longer just about exploration. It is becoming an important part of how people stay connected every day. On August 4, AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) rose 10.69%, extending its five-day gain to 30.50% and reaching its highest level in nearly three weeks.
The move followed a notable update from Meta Platforms (META). A Meta executive said the company recently held a technical and product workshop with AST SpaceMobile. They discussed how WhatsApp could work over AST SpaceMobile’s satellite network.
