Amazon launches first internet satellite prototypes
Amazon’s first pair of prototypes for its Project Kuiper satellite internet system launched on Friday.
“We’ve done extensive testing here in our lab and have a high degree of confidence in our satellite design, but there’s no substitute for on-orbit testing,” a Project Kuiper executive said.
Project Kuiper is Amazon’s plan to build a network of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit, to provide high-speed internet access anywhere in the world.
