The Atlas V rocket launched from the Florida Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Monday, at 6:54 a.m. EDT, carrying 27 satellites to become part of its Project Kuiper constellation, which aims to provide Internet service to customers worldwide.

Amazon launches 27 more Kuiper satellites, intensifying competition with SpaceX’s Starlink in the global satellite internet connectivity race.

ULA scrubbed the initial Project Kuiper 2 launch try about 35 minutes before liftoff, citing an elevated purge temperature within a booster engine.
