Amazon launches the first group of Kuper Internet to compete with SPACEX Starlink

The first batch of Internet satellites in Amazon entered the daylight on Monday night, the latest input in the Mija constellation market, which is currently dominated by the thousands of stars in Spacex.

Atlas V Rocket was carried by UNICED Launch Alliance 27 from the Amazon project, which was named after the margin of our solar system. Once launched in orbit, the satellites will eventually reach a height of about 630 km.

Two satellites were tested in 2023, and also by Atlas V. Project officials said that large promotions were made on the latest version. The latest satellites coated with a mirror film designed to spread the reflected sunlight in an attempt to accommodate astronomers.

Star stars oppose fast -growing towers of low -satellite satellites, on the pretext that they spoil the notes. Others fear more satellite clashes.

Amazon founded by Jeff Bezos, whose missile company, Blue Orige, has established more than 3,200 of these satellites in orbit to provide rapid broadband service at reasonable prices all over the world.

Elon Musk’s Spacex has already launched more than 8,000 stars since 2019. The company has been launched 250 Starlink on Sunday night. More than 7000 stars links are still about 550 km above the ground.

The numbers of the European -based one -based satellite are in the hundreds of an orbit.

Amazon bought dozens of united Launch Alliance and Blue Origin for Project Kuper missiles, as well as others.

“There are some things that you can only learn to fly,” said Rajev Badiel, Vice -Chairman of the project.

He said in a statement before the evening take off: “Regardless of how the mission is evolved, this is just the beginning of our journey.”

The first take -off attempt earlier this month was prepared due to bad weather. It took it so far to secure another place in the launch squad at the Cape Canaveral Space Force station.
