Bezos' Blue Origin Challenges Starlink with 5,400 Satellite Network

Blue Origin, backed by Jeff Bezos, is entering the satellite internet market with TeraWave, a planned network of over 5,400 satellites aimed at providing high-speed data transfer up to 6 terabits per second. This move positions Blue Origin as a competitor to Elon Musk's Starlink, which currently dominates the market, and Amazon's own Project Kuiper, though TeraWave will focus on serving data centers, businesses, and governments rather than individual consumers. While Amazon's Project Kuiper has around 180 satellites in orbit, it plans to have more than 3,000 in orbit.

The company's business model relies on user data collection and constant ad display, raising questions about consumer acceptance and long-term viability.
