Semtech, a global supplier of high performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and advanced algorithms, announced a joint initiative with Lacuna Space to further increase coverage and resilience of LoRaWAN connectivity.

A European team of scientists have bounced a LoRa (long range) message off the Moon. The feat has reported it set a record of 730,360km for the furthest distance a LoRa message has ever travelled.

The successful conclusion of the first phase of testing has been completed by Lacuna Space in its mission to provide complete global coverage for LoRa devices and wireless radio frequency technology (LoRa Technology) to anywhere in the world, no matter how remote.
