Amazon changes rockets for its Kuiper satellites
亚马逊为发射柯伊伯互联网卫星原型更换火箭
It won’t be much longer before we get a glimpse of Amazon’s internet-from-space. The first two satellites of the space-based Kuiper constellation will be launched early next year. However, they won’t be aboard ABL Space Systems’ rocket as previously planned. Instead, they will hitch a ride on the Vulcan rocket, which is being developed by United Launch Alliance (ULA), a Boeing-Lockheed Martin joint venture.
亚马逊(Amazon)周三宣布,该公司将为其柯伊伯计划(Project Kuiper)互联网网络更换首批原型卫星,此举将把这对航天器的发射推迟到明年年初。
