Amazon Leo, formerly known as Project Kuiper, is a mega constellation of satellites in Low Earth Orbit that will offer broadband internet access, this constellation will be managed by Kuiper Systems LLC, a subsidiary of Amazon. This constellation is planned to be composed of 3,276 satellites. The satellites are projected to be placed in 98 orbital planes in three orbital layers, one at 590 km, 610 km and 630 km altitude. 29 satellites are carried on this launch.

You are standing at the amber dot in the middle. The solid cyan arrow is where to aim your eyes — roughly where the rocket will appear highest in the sky.

Lighting note

At night, look for the faint glow of the exhaust plume rather than the rocket itself. Let your eyes adjust for several minutes before liftoff, and avoid looking at phone screens.
