WASHINGTON, June 2, 2026 — Amazon Leo [successfully launched 29 satellites into low-Earth orbit](https://newsroom.ulalaunch.com/releases/united-launch-alliance-precisely-delivers-seventh-amazon-leo-mission-advancing-constellation-toward-commercial-service?ref=broadbandbreakfast.com) Friday, despite weather concerns and the [explosion of a New Glenn rocket](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/blue-origin-rocket-explodes-on-the-launch-pad-during-an-engine-firing-test/) owned by **Jeff Bezos**’ Blue Origin.

The May 29 launch brings Amazon’s total deployed satellites to 331.

The next mission, the Atlas V Amazon Leo 8 launch with United Launch Alliance, is scheduled for July from Cape Canaveral, but the New Glenn explosion could set back Amazon’s timetable significantly. [While none of Amazon’s planned 48 satellites were on board](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/as-blue-origin-investigates-rocket-explosion-amazon-leo-satellites-still-launched/) at the time, the company will have to continue its launches with ULA’s smaller rockets until the pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is repaired. 

Industry analyst **Tim Farrar** said on X that [the explosion could delay the start of AST SpaceMobile’s commercial service into 2028](https://x.com/ive%5Fm5/status/2060531948582305946?ref=broadbandbreakfast.com), despite the possibility of the company using the ULA’s Vulcan rocket. 

“AST SpaceMobile’s near-term launches are unaffected; none of the missions planned for the next few months are scheduled with Blue Origin,” an AST SpaceMobile spokesperson told Broadband Breakfast. “Our satellites are designed to be launcher-agnostic, and we have agreements in place with multiple launch providers.”
