Amazon successfully launched and deployed 27 Project Kuiper Satellites on United Launch Alliance’s (ULA) Atlas 5 Rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Amazon’s Project Kuiper internet satellites are similar to SpaceX’s Starlink satellite network, and will eventually employ a 3,236 low-Earth-orbit satellite constellation to provide broadband around the globe.

Amazon’s Kuiper is a game-changer—finally, some competition to shake up Starlink’s orbital monopoly! Space just got a bit more crowded and a lot more interesting. 🛰️

It’s hardly going to be a shakeup – but definitely good competition.

@@GoPlayMLP Okay, so? Bezos ≠ Amazon. Amazon is a publicly traded company with a legal responsibility to act in the best interests of shareholders. Going with Blue Origin just because its a company owned by the ex-CEO isn’t in the best interests of shareholders.
