When we were growing up, a great companion was television because it gave us many hours of entertainment, and with that the work of many hours of actors around the world, although the series and movies become a big part of our day to day. Many times when they end, we can forget about the protagonists, in case they do not transcend in some other work, and that is what must have happened to the young Bridgit Mendler<\/strong> who has taken her life in a completely different way, away from the lights and international fame to now be able to navigate the world beyond. And we’re talking about space if the former Disney artist<\/strong> is now into space analysis.<\/p>\n

With her satellite data firm Northwood Space<\/strong>, actress and singer Bridgit Mendler, who is most known for her appearances in Disney Channel series “Good Luck Charlie” and “Lemonade Mouth,”<\/strong> is expanding her professional experience by taking on the job of CEO.<\/p>\n

With over $6 million in initial funding acquired from investors including Founders Fund, Andreessen Horowitz<\/strong>, and Also Capital, Northwood is drawing well-known venture capitalists. Northwood’s goal is to construct satellite ground stations that prioritize flexibility in deployment and rapid production. According to Luthra, Northwood’s goa<\/strong>l is to supply ground stations “within days, not months,” saving satellite operators the trouble of having to spend time rearranging their networks to accommodate Earthly events.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe vision is a data highway between Earth and space,\u201d Bridgit Mendler told CNBC. \u201cSpace is getting easier along so many different dimensions but still the actual exercise of sending data to and from space is difficult. You have difficulty finding an access point for contacting your satellite.\u201d<\/p>\n

“We are designing shared ground infrastructure from first principles to expand access to space. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but that\u2019s the fun part,” Bridgit Mendler added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/figure>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
