Upcoming missions
We're preparing to launch 27 Project Kuiper satellites as part of our next mission with United Launch Alliance (ULA). The mission, named KA-03 for our third Kuiper launch on an Atlas V rocket, will send another 27 satellites into orbit, bringing our total spacecraft deployed to 129 satellites.
ULA will deploy the satellites at an altitude of 280 miles (450 kilometers) above Earth, at which point the Project Kuiper team will take over command of the mission from our 24/7 mission operations center in Redmond, Washington, confirm satellite health, and ultimately raise the satellites to their assigned orbit of 392 miles (630 km) above Earth.
Mission name: KA-03 (Kuiper Atlas 3)
Launch vehicle: ULA Atlas V 551
Launch date: September 25, 2025
Number of satellites: 27
Launch site: Space Launch Complex-41, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station

ULA  @ulalaunch
Another United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket will soon be going into space to deliver a heavy payload of Amazon broadband internet satellites for the growing @ProjectKuiper constellation. Precision meets power when ULA pushes the Kuiper constellation into orbit.

ULA  @ulalaunch
Atlas V's first stage has been filled with room-temperature RP-1 propellant that will feed the main engine during the initial phase of Thursday's @ProjectKuiper launch. Loading of cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen occurs in the final hours of the launch countdown.

Сколько осталось РД-180?

Вам так лень посчитать самому?

122 поставили, 110 слетало (6 Atlas-3 и 104 Atlas-5).

А здесь в подвале можно пальчиком посчитать до 12: https://space.skyrocket.de/doc_lau/atlas-5.htm
