.@ULAlaunch is targeting Friday, July 3 at 12:03 a.m. ET for the launch of Leo Atlas 8 (LA-08) from SLC-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

Every mission adds coverage and capacity to the Leo network, and LA-08 — our fourth Atlas V in three months — is on track to be our 14th overall launch as we work to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers around the world.

The next Atlas V 551 rocket launch campaign is underway at Cape Canaveral as United Launch Alliance prepares for the Amazon Leo 8 mission. Targeted for July 3 at 12:03 a.m. EDT, pending range approval, the launch will deliver another 29 advanced broadband satellites into low Earth orbit for Amazon’s constellation.

Sixty‑nine years ago, Atlas took its first flight! Since that first launch, the Atlas family has carried out 691 missions across national security, commercial, scientific and human spaceflight, standing as a foundational pillar of America’s space program.

At ULA, our values guide every decision, and safety is at the core. During National Safety Month, we celebrate our mission-focused, ingenious, collaborative and ethical team members who deliver certainty for every customer mission. From manufacturing to liftoff, safety remains the foundation of every launch.

@NASA @NASAArtemis @AstroKomrade @Astro_AndreD @esa @astro_luca Congratulations!

[ULA @ulalaunch]

Atlas V is getting ready -- for the ninth time -- to deliver for Amazon!

From launching the early Protoflight test spacecraft to the first batches of production satellites, United Launch Alliance continues to be a trusted partner in helping the Amazon Leo constellation connect the world.

Today, we began the launch campaign for the next mission that will launch an additional 29 satellites in July!

[Amazon Leo @Amazonleo]

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.

[ULA @ulalaunch]

The first low Earth orbit (LEO)-optimized Centaur upper stage is now integrated atop the Vulcan rocket at ULA's @AmazonLeo Integration Facility!

Integrating the vehicle with the new LEO 85K Centaur upper stage allows the team to perform first time procedures, validate stage and ground support equipment interfaces with a planned Wet Dress Rehearsal to validate new technologies in advance of the first Vulcan Leo mission.

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.

@panos_panay @Amazonleo Appreciate the partnership! We are proud to launch the future of global connectivity.

@NASAAdmin Thank you!

Successful Atlas staging is confirmed as the rocket passes off the coast of North Carolina Outer Banks at an altitude of 125 miles. The Centaur upper stage continues the ascent by accelerating the Amazon Leo payload to orbit. The vehicle now weighs less than seven percent of its liftoff mass. https://t.co/5bAKrECLty
