They have to orbit ~1600 Kupiers by summer 2026 per their FCC license. I’m sure President Musks FCC director will be ameanable.

- lupusreal 2y agoHaving to do it according to the terms of their license doesn't make it a realistic goal. Three or four launches by 2026 would be more in line with the traditional pace of new launchers (and this doesn't account for Blue Origin's uniquely slow pace.)
- signatoremo 2y agoGet your facts right. That’s Amazon, not Blue Origin. Amazon has booked flight with various launch providers, including SpaceX to meet their license’s requirement. It’s still a very aggressive schedule with little room for error.
