AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) Stock in Focus: BlueBird-6 Launch Countdown, Fresh Valuation Debate, and Wall Street Targets (Dec. 22, 2025)
AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASTS) is back in the market’s spotlight on December 22, 2025, with investors zeroed in on one near-term catalyst: the launch of BlueBird 6, the company’s first next‑generation “Block 2” satellite. Today’s conversation around ASTS stock is a familiar mix of space-tech optimism, execution anxiety, and price action that can move faster than a rocket launch schedule. After a sharp run-up late last week, ASTS is entering the final stretch before a mission that could materially de-risk (or complicate) its path to turning direct‑to‑device satellite connectivity into a scalable business.
