Amazon says the satellites flying on this mission are an upgrade over the pair of prototype Kuiper satellites that launched from our Space Coast in October of 2023.

Amazon's first big batch of Project Kuiper broadband satellites will lift off a week from now, if all goes according to plan.

Jeff Bezos' Project Kuiper said Wednesday it is planning to launch 27 satellites April 9 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida. It's the project's first full batch of the internet connection satellites.
