Facebook is in talks to buy Titan Aerospace, a maker of solar-powered drones, to step up its efforts to provide Internet access to remote parts of the world, according to reports from technology blog TechCrunch and financial news outlet CNBC.
The purchase could fit with the goals of Internet.org, CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s project.
The Facebook-led partnership, launched last summer with the goal of connecting the more than 5 billion people who are not already online.
Presumably, Internet.org could use Titan’s solar-powered atmospheric satellites as airborne wireless-access points.
