  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Airspace today is densely penetrated by Wi-Fi networks, GPS services, and broadcasting and  mobile phone signals. This process, what we call the mediatization of the air, is not so new, as it  began in the first two decades of the 20th century, with the advent of wireless telegraphy. Based on  archival research, this paper shows that wireless telegraphy mediatized the air and made it a matter  of common interest for formerly-disconnected international realms. The mediatized air transformed  meteorology, timekeeping, mobility, and transportation, and challenged governance over aerial  borders. Overall, this historical study contributes to a different narrative about mediatization by  including an invisible and understudied phenomenon that today represents a basic and taken-for- granted infrastructure for global communication.</dc:description>
