Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Amazon announces huge rocket deal to launch its satellite internet constellation

Project Kuiper is a space project by Amazon to deploy a large broadband satellite internet constellation. It plans to deploy over 3,000 satellites to provide internet connections around the world. This ambitious plan is expected to compete with Starlink by Elon Musk’s Space X, which has already deployed over 2,000 satellites. In order to put more than 3,000 satellites in space, Amazon chose three companies to launch 83 rockets, including Blue Origin, the company’s founder Jeff Bezos’s rocket company. Amazon plans to start launching a few test satellites to orbit next year and make at least 1,600 satellites in operation by 2026. It seems that the space around Earth will be much more congested than now with thousands of satellites and an enormous amount of data transmissions. Will the space be safe to travel to?

Enjoy reading the article and learning about the new phase of the internet connection.
