Amazon's Leo satellite network reaches 396 satellites, enough for continuous internet service
By
Andreas Knobloch
Summary
Amazon's satellite internet constellation, Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper), has reached 396 satellites in low Earth orbit following the 14th launch mission aboard an Atlas V rocket. This milestone means the network now has enough satellites for continuous service. The "Leo Atlas" launch campaign is complete, and future launches will use ULA's new Vulcan heavy-lift rocket to increase deployment capacity.
