Hubble Network’s satellite-powered Bluetooth network is getting a big upgrade.

The Seattle-based startup, which aims to bring to enterprises what Apple’s Find My has brought to consumers, has built a powerful new phased-array receiver that will enable what Hubble CEO Alex Haro calls a “true Bluetooth layer around the Earth.”

This advanced payload will fly on two massive new satellites from four-year-old Muon Space , called MuSat XL, which are slated to launch in 2027. The first two MuSat XL spacecraft will deliver a 12-hour global revisit time and detect Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signals at 30 times lower power than current capabilities, Hubble says. If those numbers pan out, it could materially extend battery life for tracking tags and sensors here on Earth.

Those two satellites wi
