Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, speaks during the American Business Forum at the Cassia Center in Miami, on November 6, 2025.
Blue Origin, owned by Jeff Bezos, announced yesterday, Wednesday, in a statement that it intends to create its own internet network through a constellation of satellites, with the service expected to be available by the end of 2027, thereby competing with SpaceX’s Starlink and Amazon’s Project Kuiper.
Blue Origin plans to use a network of 5,408 satellites in low Earth orbit, at an altitude of up to 2,000 kilometers, and in medium Earth orbit, ranging between 2,000 and 35,786 kilometers, to build its “TeraWave” system.
Unlike Starlink and Project Kuiper, whose services are available to the public, TeraWave will be dedicated exclusively to institutions, specifically “companies, data centers, and government agencies that need a stable internet connection for their vital operations,” as Blue Origin explained.
Only One Hundred Thousand Customers
The company indicated that it will target only about one hundred thousand customers when the service begins operation, while Starlink and Project Kuiper are available to millions.

Blue Origin
Blue Origin is an American private aerospace manufacturer and spaceflight services company founded in 2000 by Jeff Bezos. Its primary goal is to develop technologies to enable private human access to space, with notable achievements including the reusable New Shepard suborbital launch vehicle and the development of the New Glenn orbital rocket.
Amazon
The Amazon refers to the vast Amazon Rainforest in South America, which is the world’s largest tropical rainforest and river basin. Its history spans millions of years of ecological development, with human habitation by indigenous peoples dating back at least 11,000 years before significant European exploration began in the 16th century.

Miami is a major coastal city in southeastern Florida, founded in 1896 and known for its vibrant art deco architecture in the South Beach neighborhood. Its modern history is deeply shaped by 20th-century immigration, particularly from Cuba and other Latin American countries, which has defined its cultural identity as a gateway to the Americas.
SpaceX
SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk in 2002, is a private American aerospace manufacturer and space transportation company. Its history is defined by pioneering reusable rocket technology, drastically reducing the cost of space access, and achieving milestones like being the first private company to send astronauts to the International Space Station.
Starlink
Starlink is a satellite internet constellation developed by SpaceX, aiming to provide high-speed, low-latency internet access globally, especially in remote and underserved areas. The project began launching its first operational satellites in 2019 and has since deployed thousands to create a vast network in low Earth orbit.
Project Kuiper
Project Kuiper is Amazon’s initiative to deploy a large constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, aiming to provide global broadband internet access. Announced in 2019, the project is designed to connect unserved and underserved communities around the world and is named after the Kuiper Belt, a region of the solar system beyond Neptune.
TeraWave
TeraWave is a fictional or unspecified cultural site, as there is no widely recognized place or landmark by that name in historical or cultural records. Without verified information, its history and significance cannot be accurately summarized.
New Glenn rocket
The New Glenn rocket is a heavy-lift launch vehicle under development by the private aerospace company Blue Origin, named in honor of NASA astronaut John Glenn. Designed for reusability, its first stage is intended to land vertically like the company’s New Shepard rocket, with the goal of significantly reducing the cost of access to space. Its development, announced in 2016, represents a major private-sector effort to support satellite deployment and future deep space missions.
Sarah Sabry
Sarah Sabry is an Egyptian engineer and the first Egyptian woman to travel to space as a space tourist on the Blue Origin NS-22 mission in 2022. Her journey marked a significant milestone for space exploration and representation from the Arab world.
Egypt
Egypt is home to one of the world’s oldest civilizations, with a recorded history spanning over 5,000 years and famed for its monumental pharaonic architecture like the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Its rich cultural legacy, from ancient hieroglyphs to Greco-Roman and Islamic influences, continues to be central to its national identity and a major focus of global archaeological study.
