Blue Origin plans to build a satellite network that would compete with SpaceX's Starlink business.
Jeff Bezos' space company would also compete with the satellite division his former company Amazon has been deploying.
Blue Origin said today it aims to start deploying TerraWave, a more than 5,400 satellite constellation in near-Earth orbit, toward the end of next year.
It would target businesses, data centers, and government customers.

Open AI expects to see a more even mix between its consumer and enterprise businesses by the end of the year.
That's according to its CFO, Sarah Fryer, who spoke in a CNBC interview at Davos, Switzerland.

And Ubisoft Entertainment says it's undergoing a major structural overhaul, discontinuing several games, closing some studios, and cutting financial targets.
The French video game group said it'll reorganize into five creative houses in April, each with its own leadership team and focusing on specific game types, such as shooter games or narrative-driven games.
Each creative house will also be financially accountable for specific titles like Assassin's Creed or Ghost Recon.
The company said the move was meant to strengthen collaboration in an increasingly competitive market.
Ubisoft has been seeking to turn its business around for months after production delays, glitches, and cancellations.
Its stock is down about 40% over the past 12 months.
