Abstract

Amazon has hired Elon Musk's SpaceX for three rocket launches as part of its satellite-internet division, Project Kuiper. This marks the first time Amazon has turned to SpaceX, as it had previously hired Blue Origin, Arianespace, and United Launch Alliance for its launches. SpaceX charges $67 million per flight under its standard plan. Both Musk and Bezos are competing in the satellite-internet services market, with Amazon's Project Kuiper targeting the same subscribers as SpaceX's Starlink division. [Extracted from the article]
