Amazon has partnered with SpaceX to launch its Kuiper satellites, with a recent Falcon 9 rocket successfully deploying 24 satellites into orbit. This collaboration is part of Amazon's ambitious Project Kuiper, which aims to establish a broadband internet service from a constellation of over 3,000 satellites, competing directly with SpaceX's Starlink. To meet regulatory deadlines, Amazon is rapidly increasing its satellite launches, with significant investments expected in the coming years.
