Two significant milestones for Amazon Project Kuiper this week. First, the team showed successful tests of our Kuiper network, delivering 1+ Gbps speeds using our enterprise-grade customer terminal (the first commercial phased array ever to clear that threshold to our knowledge). Second, excited to have JetBlue as our first airline customer – bringing faster in-flight Wi-Fi to their passengers using our low Earth orbit satellite network. We continue to be focused on bringing fast, reliable, cost-effective connectivity to customers around the world who don’t have easy access to broadband connectivity. https://lnkd.in/gt6Bi9pg

The Kuiper Government Solutions team is headed to #DSEI. If you’re planning your agenda, we’ll be on the floor at booth S5-305, and don’t miss Don Brown's (Head of Global Government, Kuiper) keynote speech on Thursday, September 11. He will share insights on space’s role in all-domain dominance and multilateral collaboration. More details: https://spr.ly/6044ADlRe

In-flight Wi-Fi is going to get a major upgrade. JetBlue will be the first airline to adopt Amazon Project Kuiper technology to power their free Wi-Fi starting in 2027. Our low Earth orbit satellites operate 60x closer to Earth than traditional systems, creating a fundamentally different connectivity experience. With four successful launches and 100+ satellites already deployed, we're building what will become another essential layer of global infrastructure, bringing connectivity to customers no matter where they are. https://lnkd.in/gN6_MNtF

@Amazon VP leading consumer + enterprise business for @ProjectKuiper. On a mission to bring fast, reliable internet to customers + communities around the world.
Proud to join JetBlue President Marty St. George to announce JetBlue as our inaugural airline customer for Amazon Project Kuiper. JetBlue was the first airline to offer free Wi-Fi for all passengers, and we expect the addition of Kuiper-powered Fly-Fi will have a similarly big impact for passengers flying JetBlue. Excited for what's ahead as we work together to redefine the in-flight experience! https://lnkd.in/gnyM_Nng

>1 Gbps speeds from low Earth orbit. With our first Amazon Project Kuiper satellites on station at 630 km, we’ve been able to put the network through its paces, and last week our team conducted another round of speed tests using our enterprise-grade customer terminal. The results speak for themselves. For all the focus on our satellites, some of the biggest Kuiper inventions are on the customer terminal side of the house. The team set a high bar from the start, and as far as we know, this is the first commercial phased array antenna to deliver 1+ Gbps from low Earth orbit. We can’t wait to get it in the hands of our customers. P.S. Uplink numbers generated as much excitement (if not more). We'll save those for another day though...

Our next mission with United Launch Alliance (ULA) is KA-03, the third of eight Kuiper missions on Atlas V. The mission will send another 27 Kuiper satellites into low Earth orbit, and ULA is targeting Thursday, Sept. 25 for launch. Follow along for the latest on KA-03 and other Kuiper missions: https://spr.ly/6047fA6jc

📹: The view from a Kuiper satellite launched on last week’s KF-02 mission with SpaceX. This imagery was captured over a 24-minute period — enough time for the satellite to travel 5,500+ miles in orbit, from over Italy to the Indian Ocean east of Madagascar.
What a view! Last Monday, this satellite was stowed tightly in a Falcon 9 fairing with 23 other Kuiper satellites, waiting for weather to clear for a fifth consecutive launch attempt. By Thursday, we had photos of it fully deployed and hurtling through space at 16,000+ mph. The first frame was captured as it passed over Italy, and you can see our fully extended solar array in the foreground (one half at least!) — just one of many satellite sub-systems designed and built in-house by the Kuiper team. 100+ satellites in orbit for Amazon Project Kuiper, and more shipping out regularly to join them in space. Pretty remarkable stuff.

100+ Kuiper satellites now in orbit. Thanks to United Launch Alliance (ULA)'s Atlas V and SpaceX's Falcon 9 for four nominal missions to begin our launch campaign. https://spr.ly/6046fWiC4
