Amazon plans to launch its space-internet service, Leo, in mid-2026, with an enterprise preview set for the end of 2025, and is currently relying on various launch partners to send satellites into orbit until its own New Glenn rocket becomes operational.
Amazon's Leo space-internet service is set to launch commercially in mid-2026, but currently relies on external launch partners, including SpaceX, for deploying its satellites. This positions Amazon as a significant competitor to SpaceX's Starlink, highlighting a growing trend of tech giants investing in satellite internet infrastructure. For those tracking investment opportunities or strategic partnerships in the space economy, this development signals potential collaborations or competitive dynamics in the space tech sector.
