Project Kuiper aims to put 3,232 satellites into low Earth orbit to support a high-speed internet network that could serve tens of millions of users around the world — and, not incidentally, provide infrastructure for Amazon WebServices and for other current or future offerings from Amazon.
Project Kuiper, an ambitious program that was unveiled four years ago , aims to provide broadband internet access — and satellite-based access to Amazon WebServices — to millions of people around the world. Deployment is scheduled to occur about 18 minutes after launch.
Project Kuiper’s satellites are to be launched in five phases, and service would begin once Amazon launched the first 578 satellites. Under the terms of the FCC’s order, Amazon will have to launch half of its satellites by mid-2026, and the rest of them by mid-2029.
But Project Kuiper aims to take advantage of synergies with Amazon’s other business lines, ranging from online retail sales to Amazon Prime Video and Amazon WebServices.
