Kube nezikhathi eziningana lapho ku-HWLibre sikhulume khona ngalelo phrojekthi elilindelwe isikhathi eside abathuthukisa kulo Facebook ngazo bafuna ukuthwala i-inthanethi kuwo wonke amagumbi omhlaba, kufaka phakathi okungafinyeleleki kakhulu futhi okukude kakhulu. Ngezikhathi ezithile, kusuka enkampanini edumile yenethiwekhi yokuxhumana nabantu, basitshela ukuthi intuthuko yayo iqhubeka kanjani kancane kancane futhi, kulokhu, kubonakala sengathi banokucaca okucacile kokuthi bangasetshenziswa kanjani iphrojekthi enjalo.
Njengoba kusanda kuvezwa, ngokusobala onjiniyela be-Facebook abaphethe ukuthuthukiswa kwale phrojekthi ye-titanic banqume ukuthi akumele kusetshenziswe amanethiwekhi omhlaba nje kuphela ukufeza lo msebenzi, kepha nokuthi kufanele basekwe yi- ukusetshenziswa kwama-drones neziphuphutheki okungukuthi, ngamafuphi, lezo ezingathuthukisa amandla wamanje ngokuletha i-Intanethi kuzo zonke izinhlobo zezindawo nezindawo.
I-Facebook izosebenzisa amanethiwekhi wamanje wokuxhumana, ama-drones neziphuphutheki ukuthola i-inthanethi kuwo wonke amagumbi omhlaba
Ukulalela amazwi ka UJanna lewis, Umqondisi wezinhlangano zamasu amasha kanye nemithombo ye-Facebook, ngesikhathi sengqungquthela e-Space Technology and Investment Forum, ebibanjwe kule mpelasonto:
Ku-Facebook sizama ukuxhuma abantu abavela ku-stratosphere nase-space.
Njengoba kungenzeka ucabanga, namuhla kuthakazelisa kakhulu, futhi ngaphezu kwakho konke kunenzuzo esikhathini esifushane, sisebenzisa ama-drones neziphuphutheki ukuletha i-intanethi ezindaweni ezikude kakhulu zeplanethi kunokuzama ukusetha ukuxhumana okunezintambo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, manje sekulula kakhulu ukuthumela iziphuphutheki emkhathini ngenxa yokukhula kwezinkampani ezinjengeSpace X, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic noma iVrigin Orbit futhi ikakhulukazi ekuncintisaneni okwenziwa phakathi kwazo, into eyenza amanani okubeka isathelayithi ku-orbit ayancipha.
