StartRocket Launching First ever tiny satellites into low-Earth orbit to Display Advertisements

A Russian startup wants to launch tiny satellites into low-Earth orbit that’ll illuminate advertisements in the night sky. StartRocket says it will launch what it calls the Orbital Display by 2020, and start displaying ads in the night sky by 2021. Its cubesats will orbit at an altitude between 400 and 500 kilometers (about 250 to 310 miles) and will only be visible from the ground for about six minutes at a time, a company representative told Futurism.
