> Kuiper also allows Amazon to extend customer access to Amazon Web Services (AWS). Without Kuiper, AWS already generated ~$80 billion in sales in 2022. It likely will be that the Kuiper customer base might contribute a tiny share of that, but every little bit counts. AWS is also used in Amazon’s Ground Station offering. It would be interesting to see how the 1 Gigabit per second antenna terminal ties in with the company’s AWS Ground Station. Using the Kuiper network to tie in its Ground Station offering would impact another space business: ground stations.
crux of the article, imho.
