Project Kuiper builds on the same concept of using satellite intermediaries between users and internet-connected ground stations.
Both systems' satellites will hum along at about 7,600m/s ( 17,000mph ) Starlink has over 6,400 of its roughly 13,000 FCC -approved units in orbit, with goals of 30,000 more.
Despite the similarities, the two projects' ground-up designs demand various subtle technical differences.
Project Kuiper will miss the FCC deadline, although it could receive an extension if launches ramp up enough by 2026 .
Starlink and its rocket-owning CEO managed just 800 serviceable satellites in orbit the first year .
Amazon already owns the internet — more than any other company, so owning the internet in space isn't a stretch.
