WE FINALLY KNOW A LITTLE MORE ABOUT AMAZON'S SUPER-SECRET SATELLITES
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Amazon finally launched the first production satellites for its Kuiper broadband network last week. The company has been secretive about the project since it was unveiled in 2019. The designs of the satellites remain unknown, but a fuzzy video released by Amazon on Friday revealed enough to make out their trapezoidal shape. The mass of each Kuiper satellite is estimated to be somewhere between 1,185 and 1,259 pounds.
