Amazon Says It Has Enough Satellites to Launch Leo Broadband Service
Initial service is expected later this year following the latest Atlas V launch.
WASHINGTON, July 6, 2026 – Amazon says it has deployed enough satellites to launch its Leo commercial service later this year.
The company launched 29 additional satellites aboard a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket early Thursday, bringing its constellation to 396 spacecraft. That is sufficient to provide “continuous service across initial latitudes,” Chris Weber, vice president of business and product for Amazon Leo, wrote in a post on X.
