Gonets satellite terminals provide communication during the second stage of the EMERCOM expedition "Safe Arctic — 2025". This was reported to TASS by the terminal developer, Gonets Satellite System (part of Roscosmos). During this stage of the expedition, all-terrain vehicles will travel a route of more than 2,400 kilometers through Chukotka.
Seven Gonets terminals in the "Mobile" version and two "Gonets-Autonomous" kits were provided for the expedition. The equipment successfully transmits data about the location of all-terrain vehicles from the route to the coordinating headquarters of the EMERCOM and helps expedition members communicate with each other.
Gonets-Autonomous is a universal development for scientists, rescuers, and ordinary tourists. The terminal provides communication in remote locations and can transmit personal messages, small files, and the location coordinates of its owner. To use the service, simply connect to it via Wi-Fi from a smartphone using a mobile application or through a web interface. The web interface is included in the Gonets-Autonomous terminal package and fits in a small backpack.
The terminal was presented, tested, and put into production in 2024. "Safe Arctic — 2025" is the first major opportunity for the EMERCOM to use it "in the field."

It started on December 25 from Murmansk and will last more than 35 days. The expedition will conclude at the end of January with a large interdepartmental experimental research exercise "Safe Arctic — 2025".
