    Even European launchers—built under the guise of “sovereignty”—are finding themselves more attracted to #US 🇺🇸 customers. All three #Ariane6 flights this year have taken satellites for the #Amazon Leo constellation to orbit payloadspace.com/europe-expand

  31. #Amazon is purchasing up to 83 launches from #Arianespace, #BlueOrigin and #ULA”. At current market prices, it is assumed that the launch Capex from these 83 launches could be as high as $6 billion to $10 billion, deploying only half 🌗 as many satellites as #Starlink already did by 📆 mid-2024. If #Kuiper had access to the same launch deal as Starlink, its launch Capex could be less than half 📉 of what it is estimated here. spacenews.com/spacex-and-the-c
