FCC to vote on auctioning prime spectrum coveted by Amazon and SpaceX

Original: FCC to vote on auctioning 25MHz of 'prime spectrum' in move that could benefit Amazon, SpaceX

The Federal Communications Commission will vote on auctioning 25 megahertz of spectrum it describes as prime, a decision that could benefit satellite and broadband players including Amazon and SpaceX. The radio airwaves are valuable for expanding satellite internet and connectivity services, and the outcome could shape competition between the two companies' growing space-based network ambitions.

Why now: Regulators are moving to allocate scarce spectrum that could advantage major satellite internet rivals like Amazon's Project Kuiper and SpaceX's Starlink.
