We’re partnering with Uztelecom, the leading telecommunications operator in Uzbekistan, to bring satellite connectivity to remote and hard-to-reach communities across the country. UZ-SAT will serve as an authorized distributor of Amazon Leo, complementing Uztelecom's extensive terrestrial network and helping close the digital divide for millions of people.

We've secured six more Ariane 6 launches with @Arianespace, bringing the total number of Leo Europe missions to 24—enough to send 800+ Leo satellites into orbit. Read more: spr.ly/6019BGz947

Nadine started at an Amazon delivery station. Jessica started at a fulfillment center. Today, Nadine assembles solar panels on Leo satellites. Jessica tests components in our space simulation lab. Both earned aerospace certifications at no cost to them through Amazon's Career Choice program, and are now one of thousands of people at Amazon helping build, launch, and operate our growing satellite network.

Most internships end with a doc. This one ended with a rocket launch. Thanks for spending your summer with us!

Direct-to-device is a key part of our long-term vision for @AmazonLeo. Big opportunity to connect more people in more places (and too big to do entirely on our own). Our plan is to start deploying in 2028, and we’re excited to work with partners to make it happen. aboutamazon.com/news/amazon-…]

Following our agreement to acquire @Globalstar, we've filed with the @FCC to deploy the Leo D2D System—up to 5,105 new satellites that will bring voice, data, messaging, and emergency services directly to compatible mobile devices. The new system is a core part of our long-term vision for Amazon Leo, bringing high-speed connectivity to more people in more places around the world. Learn more: spr.ly/6013BEaWOJ

.@AmazonLeo and @hero_telecoms just signed an agreement to bring fast, reliable satellite internet to areas of South Africa where existing broadband can’t reach. The service is called Evry, and it will be offered by Herotel and powered by Leo. Proud of the teams making this happen. This is what the work is all about.

We built Amazon Leo to bring fast, reliable internet to customers and communities beyond the reach of existing networks. @hero_telecoms has spent years doing exactly that across South Africa — reaching farming towns, small businesses, and communities on the outskirts. Proud to see our teams working together to bring connectivity to even more South Africans who need it, and look forward to rolling out service to those customers in the future.

We’re bringing Leo to South Africa through a collaboration with @hero_telecoms, helping deliver fast, reliable internet to millions of people and small businesses in rural, peri-urban and agricultural communities across the country. Read more: spr.ly/6014BEXM8n

29 more satellites deployed, adding to the 350+ already in orbit. Congrats to our @AmazonLeo teams and @ulalaunch.

Last few launches were big for @AmazonLeo - bringing us to 390+ satellites deployed, enough to support continuous service across initial latitudes. Still lots of work ahead – including raising all these new satellites to their assigned altitude – but we’ve completed enough launches for initial service this yr, and future missions just add coverage and capacity. Thanks @ulalaunch Atlas V for getting us to this point. Ready for 40+ sat launches on Vulcan. 🚀 🚀 🚀

Deployment confirmed. Atlas V has completed its final mission for Amazon Leo, and we've established contact with all 29 satellites in low Earth orbit. Next up with @ULAlaunch: The first of 38 Leo missions on its new Vulcan rocket, which will carry 40+ satellites per launch and support a higher cadence of Leo missions from SLC-41.

Tonight: Leo Atlas 8 (LA-08) Atlas V rolled to the pad with 29 Leo satellites – our final mission on Atlas V before transitioning to Vulcan with @ULAlaunch. Launch is set for Thurs, Jul 2 at 12:24 a.m. ET from SLC-41. Livestream here: spr.ly/6011BDFkvR

Next up: Leo Atlas 8 (LA-08) Our 29-satellite payload has been transferred to @ULAlaunch for integration with Atlas V, and launch is set for Thurs, Jul 2 at 12:24 a.m. ET – adding to the 350+ Leo satellites already in orbit as we prepare to roll out service to customers.
