Iridium Is Expected to Announce Relaunch of Mobile-Phone Service

Associated Press

NEW YORK -- Fresh from its $5 billion bankruptcy and near-destruction in the Earth's atmosphere, Iridium plans to relaunch its satellite-based mobile-phone service this week.

The new owners of the 66-satellite network, Iridium Satellite LLC, plan to announce Wednesday that the system will go live again on Friday, almost exactly a year after commercial service was turned off.

Iridium Satellite paid just $25 million to acquire the system, which cost Motorola Inc. and other investors more than $5 billion to develop.
