FCC chair criticizes slow pace of <a href="https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN">Amazon</a> satellite launches

WASHINGTON, March 11 (Reuters) - The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission dismissed criticism from Amazon.com AMZN.O of Elon Musk's SpaceX plan to launch a constellation of up to 1 million satellites.

"I think Amazon should focus on getting Amazon's house in order with their own launches and their own satellite constellation, rather than worrying about other people that are actually out there launching satellites at the pace and cadence that SpaceX is," FCC Chair Brendan Carr told Reuters in an interview.

On Friday, Amazon satellite unit Amazon Leo filed comments with the FCC raising concerns about the SpaceX plan.
