SpaceX sent 27 of its Starlink internet satellites toward low Earth orbit from California this evening (April 3).

The first of 3,200 Project Kuiper satellites blast off next week.

Amazon says it has already secured more than 80 launch dates to deploy the rest of its satellites, with each launch adding dozens to the network. The final fleet will have more than 3,200 satellites. For comparison, Starlink has more than 7,100 satellites in orbit.
