The mission is kno wn as KF-03. The Kuiper constellation will enable Internet service for cus tomers between 56 degrees north and south latitude. The Falcon 9 booster i s designated B1091.2 for this flight\, flying with a reused fairing.\n-\nO perational satellites of the Kuiper constellation are a significant upgrad e from the two prototype satellites of the Protoflight mission. The ~572kg satellites are equipped with Hall-effect thruster technology for propulsi on. They feature improved systems and sub-systems on board\, including pha sed array antennas\, processors\, solar arrays\, propulsion systems\, and optical inter-satellite links. In addition\, the satellites are coated in a dielectric mirror film unique to Kuiper that scatters reflected sunlight to help make them less visible to ground-based astronomers. Kuiper is pla nned to work in concert with Amazon's network of 12 satellite ground stati on facilities. In addition to connecting to ground stations\, satellites w ill interconnect via optical infrared laser connections. Amazon refers to this technology as OISL (optical inter-satellite link).\nThe Kuiper conste llation is planned to consist of 3236 satellites operating in 98 orbital planes in three orbital shells\, one each at 590km\, 610km and 630km orb ital altitude. Kuiper satellites will fly in mid-inclination orbits\, enab ling Internet service for customers between 56 degrees north and south lat itude. Phase 1 of deployment will be 578 satellites at 630km altitude and an orbital inclination of 51.9 degrees. A total of five phases of constell ation development are planned.\n-\nDelayed from Oct. 1\, 4\, 7\, 9\, 10 an d 12.\n\nWebcast: https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1PlKQOoqVeMJE\nhttps://www.sp acex.com/launches/kf-03\nhttps://youtu.be/W59LJoet1sY\nhttps://spaceflight now.com/2025/10/13/live-coverage-spacex-poised-to-launch-24-amazon-kuiper- satellites-following-days-of-weather-delays/\nhttps://www.youtube.com/live /ltOy7WTPQHo\nhttps://www.youtube.com/live/7bcpnn_PO-A LOCATION:Space Launch Complex 40\, Cape Canaveral\, FL\, Vereinigte Staate n END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
