A satellite phone, also known as a satphone, is a type of mobile phone that connects to orbiting satellites instead of terrestrial cell towers. This allows users to make and receive calls from remote areas where traditional cell service is unavailable, such as deserts, oceans, mountains, or polar regions. Satellite phones are commonly used by individuals or organizations that operate in remote locations, such as emergency responders, researchers, explorers, and military personnel. They provide a lifeline for communication in situations where other means of communication are not feasible.
