Amazon Leo

Amazon Leo is a low Earth orbit satellite constellation designed to deliver fast, reliable internet beyond the reach of existing networks.

Behind the scenes as prep continues for Leo Vulcan 1 (LV-01), the first of 38 Vulcan missions on contract with @ULAlaunch.

Teams have completed integration of the first LEO-optimized Centaur upper stage with Vulcan inside Amazon's dedicated Vertical Integration Facility (VIF-A), allowing ULA to begin the next phase of testing ahead of upcoming Leo Vulcan launches from SLC-41.

Atlas V Amazon Leo 7 launch highlights! 🚀

[Panos Panay @panos_panay]

Another 29 @Amazonleo satellites went into orbit over the weekend. Grateful for the Leo team and our launch partners for their dedication and expertise at every step. @ulalaunch

Look back at Leo Atlas 7 (LA-07).

With 300+ satellites on orbit, we're continuing to grow our constellation ahead of an initial service rollout this year.

Leo will be back on the pad soon for LA-08, our final launch on Atlas V before transitioning to @ULALaunch's new heavy-lift Vulcan rocket.

Great shot of tonight's @AmazonLeo launch with our new VIF in the foreground for upcoming Leo Vulcan missions. Nice one @abernnyc

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

Atlas V has delivered another 29 Leo satellites to low Earth orbit, adding coverage and capacity to the network and bringing Leo one step closer to connecting customers around the world.

Next up: Leo Europe 3 (LE-03) and Leo Atlas 8 (LA-08).

[ULA @ulalaunch]

United Launch Alliance has initiated the countdown for today's launch of the Atlas V rocket to deploy 29 advanced broadband satellites into space for Amazon Leo. Our launch opportunity opens at 7:33:30 p.m. EDT (2333:30 UTC) for liftoff from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

The launch countdown is a tightly scripted sequence of procedures and steps over the next seven hours that will complete pre-launch testing, fill the rocket with propellants and put systems into flight mode.

Our live status blog begins at 4:30 p.m. EDT (2030 UTC) prior to the start of fueling operations and the livestream starts 20 minutes before launch.

Up next for @BlueOrigin: Leo New Glenn 1 (LN-01).

LN-01 is the first of 24 Leo launches on Blue Origin’s new reusable, heavy-lift rocket, and will be our largest payload yet with 48 Leo satellites on board.

Our four-tier stack is fully encapsulated in New Glenn’s 7-meter fairing and ready for transport to Blue Origin integration facilities at LC-36. More soon.

Strong partnerships and shared engineering experience continue advancing Amazon Leo and @Arianespace missions aboard Ariane 6 as we work to expand fast, reliable broadband connectivity around the world, with even larger payloads ahead.

[Arianespace @Arianespace]

Launching Ambitions.

Space is not defined by a single mission.
It is shaped by a diversity of ambitions, to connect, to navigate, to observe and to protect.

Each mission comes with its own objectives, its own constraints, its own destination.

With Ariane 6, Arianespace is designed to meet this diversity with flexibility and performance.

From deploying constellations like Amazon Leo in low Earth orbit, enabling navigation with Galileo, observing our planet with Sentinel-1D, to supporting defense missions like CSO-3.

Ariane 6 adapts to a wide range of missions, customers and orbital requirements.

Because access to space is not one-size-fits-all.
It is about enabling every mission, every ambition.

[ULA @ulalaunch]

Atlas V received its payload of 29 satellites for the next United Launch Alliance mission to space for Amazon. The Leo 7 launch enables expansion of the Amazon Leo constellation to provide fast, reliable internet to communities around the world. The launch is planned for Friday, May 29, pending range approval. The 29-minute window opens at 12:27 p.m. EDT.

A more powerful Ariane 64. Our largest Ariane payload yet.

The next batch of Amazon Leo satellites arrived in French Guiana ahead of launch on Leo Europe 3 (LE-03) with @Arianespace.

LE-03 will be our first mission aboard Ariane 64 with upgraded P160C boosters, enabling increased payload capacity as we continue scaling deployment of our constellation.

[ULA @ulalaunch]

A new chapter begins. The first Vulcan booster is vertical in the new Vertical Integration Facility (VIF-A) dedicated to @Amazonleo. This milestone enables testing of first use technologies and validates systems supporting Amazon’s LEO constellation.

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

The first Vulcan booster is vertical inside Amazon’s dedicated Vertical Integration Facility (VIF-A) at SLC-41 as prep continues for Leo Vulcan 1 (LV-01), the first of 38 Leo missions on Vulcan Centaur.

Leo satellites are already stacked for LV-01 and future Vulcan launches, and this step will allow @ULAlaunch teams to validate the systems, hardware, and procedures needed to support a sustained, high-cadence launch rate for Leo Vulcan missions.

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

32 satellites deployed. 300+ now in orbit.

Amazon Leo's LE-02 mission launched from French Guiana aboard Ariane 6 — our 11th mission in one year.

One year ago, @Amazonleo launched its first satellites. Since then:

🛰️ 11 missions
🚀 300+ satellites in orbit
🌍 Even faster cadence ahead

We're not slowing down as we prepare to deliver internet to customers around the world. Watch our latest liftoff. ⬇️

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

Two launches. Two continents. One mission.

Leo Atlas 6 (LA-06) and Leo Europe 2 (LE-02) launched just over 48 hours apart, delivering 61 Leo satellites to orbit and growing our constellation to 300+ satellites.

Leo is next on the manifest for both @ULAlaunch and @Arianespace as we prepare to accelerate deployment rates in year two.

2nd launch this week. Congrats to @Amazonleo and @Arianespace on a successful mission this morning. Pumped about this momentum.

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

11 launches. 300+ satellites deployed.

Thank you to @Arianespace, @SpaceX and @ULAlaunch for supporting our first full year of missions for Amazon Leo.

With hundreds of flight-ready satellites on deck for launch and new heavy-lift rockets coming online, we're ready to more than double our deployment rate in year two as we prepare to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers around the world.
