'We're Encouraged': Louisiana Commission Schedules Meeting With Fair Grounds Race Dates On Agenda
'We're Encouraged': Louisiana Commission Schedules Meeting With Fair Grounds Race Dates On Agenda originally appeared on Paulick Report. Late on Monday, June 16, the Louisiana State Racing Commission issued a notice scheduling a meeting for Tuesday, June 24. The agenda includes a line item for the Churchill Downs, Inc.-owned Fair Grounds entitled: "Racing Calendar for the 2025-2026 Thoroughbred meet." According to several sources, a "productive" meeting discussing the potential for a 2025-2026 race meet at the New Orleans, La., racetrack took place between horsemen and CDI officials on Monday. Ed Fenasci, executive director of the Louisiana Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, said: "Nothing to announce yet, but we're encouraged by our discussions thus far and look forward to the best meet we can have." Advertisement The uncertainty surrounding the 2025-2026 meet began when CDI CEO Bill Carstanjen wrote to the Louisiana State Racing Commission on June 9 stating the company's intention to surrender its racing license to run a live meet at Fair Grounds in 2025-'26. Carstanjen also said the company expected to surrender its slots and video poker license. The move by CDI came after the state Supreme Court ruled legislatively approved historical horse racing (HHR) at Fair Grounds OTBs was unconstitutional and required approval in local referendums. An attorney for CDI told the racing commission at an emergency meeting in May that the situation was "dire" because of the loss of revenue from HHR wagering, and that a Fair Grounds meet would not be held this year without some form of legislative assistance. Last Thursday, in the waning hours of the 2025 regular session which ended June 12, state legislators in Louisiana advanced a bill designed to prevent CDI from shuttering the Fair Grounds facility and ending live horse racing. The amendment to Senate Bill 195 designates New Orleans track as an "historic site," and states that "demolition, structural alteration, sale or cessation of racing operations" can only occur with legislative approval. This story was originally reported by Paulick Report on Jun 16, 2025, where it first appeared.

AST SpaceMobile & Fairwinds Technologies Demonstrate World's First Tactical NTN Connectivity Over Standard Mobile Devices
MIDLAND, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AST SpaceMobile, Inc. ('AST SpaceMobile') (NASDAQ: ASTS) the company building the first and only space-based cellular broadband network accessible directly by everyday smartphones, designed for both commercial and government applications, today announced the successful demonstration of the world's first Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) tactical satellite communications delivering high-throughput data, voice, and video using unmodified mobile devices in collaboration with Fairwinds Technologies (a privately held company). The field test showcased key defense-related use cases, including real-time connectivity to the Tactical Assault Kit (TAK) over a VPN, multimedia streaming via TAK, and secure multi-party video calls, all executed on standard, unmodified smartphones. This milestone demonstration was conducted near AST SpaceMobile's gateway facility on Oahu, Hawaii, with active participation from U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), including representation from the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, Army, U.S. Space Command, and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD R&E) FutureG team. AST SpaceMobile collaborated with Fairwinds Technologies on this demonstration. Fairwinds is a trusted partner providing program integration and military tactical network support as AST SpaceMobile explores direct-to-device satellite communications for U.S. government and defense applications. This effort follows the recent award by the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to the Fairwinds/AST SpaceMobile team under the Hybrid Space Architecture 2 initiative within DIU's Space Portfolio. The project is jointly supported by DIU's Cyber & Telecom Portfolio and aims to evaluate the viability of space-based direct-to-device communications for resilient, secure tactical networks in denied or austere environments. 'This demonstration represents a significant leap forward in advancing resilient, secure communications capabilities for the U.S. defense community,' said Chris Ivory, Chief Commercial and Government Business Officer at AST SpaceMobile. 'We are proud to help enable a new layer of mobile connectivity—directly from space to standard smartphones, with no need for specialized equipment, in support of national security objectives.' 'This is just the beginning,' said Timothy Hillner, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Fairwinds Technologies. 'We're honored to collaborate with AST SpaceMobile and the Defense Innovation Unit to deliver next-generation communications at the tactical edge - precisely where and when they're needed most. Together, we're enabling the future of command and control.' This was the first in a series of planned prototype demonstrations to evaluate space-based mobile broadband for defense applications, with additional testing, including over open ocean environments, planned in the coming months as the team continues to push the boundaries of multi-domain, space-based tactical communications. About AST SpaceMobile AST SpaceMobile is building the first and only global cellular broadband network in space to operate directly with standard, unmodified mobile devices based on our extensive IP and patent portfolio, and designed for both commercial and government applications. Our engineers and space scientists are on a mission to eliminate the connectivity gaps faced by today's five billion mobile subscribers and finally bring broadband to the billions who remain unconnected.
