Amazon's Kuiper Launches 27 Satellites, Eyes 2025 LEO Broadband Rollout
Amazon’s Project Kuiper is intensifying efforts to compete in the low Earth orbit (LEO) broadband race. With 27 satellites launched in April 2025 and plans for a 3,200-satellite constellation, Amazon has locked in dozens of launches across ULA, Blue Origin, Arianespace, and SpaceX. This move follows its successful 2023 prototypes and aligns with a global push for satellite internet dominance. As Starlink maintains the lead and China expands its constellations, Kuiper aims to begin services by late 2025, signaling a pivotal moment in the future of global internet connectivity.
