Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces expansion of AWS Ground Station to the South America (São Paulo) Region with an AWS Ground Station antenna location in Punta Arenas, Chile in Preview. This is the 10th AWS Ground Station connected to the AWS Global Network. AWS Ground Station is a fully managed service that lets you control satellite communications, process satellite data, and scale your satellite operations. Global expansion to Punta Arenas now enables satellite owners and operators to connect with their satellites and process their space workloads more frequently. An additional AWS Ground Station location in the Southern Hemisphere reduces the time between contacts for Low-Earth Orbit satellites. Customers who operate from this region now have access to even lower latency processing capabilities. Governments, businesses, and universities can benefit from this more timely satellite data to make precise, data driven decisions. 

206 years ago a son was born to a Lincolnshire shoemaker. The son was to demonstrate that all human reasoning could be reduced to a series of yes or no decisions. Each decision could therefore be represented in algebraic terms. 84years ago Claude Shannon showed how these algebraic terms could optimise the design of systems …
