Our mission
There are billions of people on the planet who lack high-speed internet access, and millions of businesses, governments, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity. We started Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) to help address this gap and extend fast, reliable internet to more people around the world.

Launch & Deployment

Amazon Leo began a full-scale deployment of its satellite constellation in April 2025 with the first of 80+ launches from Arianespace, Blue Origin, SpaceX, and United Launch Alliance (ULA). Those agreements comprise the largest commercial procurement of launch capacity in history, and support thousands of suppliers and highly skilled jobs across the U.S. and Europe.

Our Technology
Amazon Leo is powered by a constellation of more than 3,000 satellites in low Earth orbit, connected by high-speed optical links and communicating with a secure global network of gateway stations, fiber, and internet connection points on the ground. Customers connect to the network using one of three compact, high-performance antennas—Leo Nano, Leo Pro, and Leo Ultra—extending high-speed, low-latency broadband to virtually any location on the planet.

Safety & Sustainability

Amazon is committed to operating safely and responsibly in space, and we’ve designed our entire constellation to minimize the risk of orbital debris. We’re also working with astronomers to explore ways to reduce the visibility of our satellites and avoid interference with scientific research.
