Amazon's planning to put 3236 communication satellites in low-Earth orbit (LEO) in order to offer satellite Internet. The company's planning to put KuiperSat-1 and KuiperSat-2 in space by end of 2022 to test its technologies outside of the lab environment.

Amazon will deorbit the satellite so that they don't add to space debris. One of the satellites will also have a sunshade so that ground satellites get an unobstructed view of the space.
