Blue Origin is set to launch its New Glenn rocket, carrying satellites into orbit, and potentially marking another step towards reusable spaceflight. The mission is crucial for the company's lunar lander missions as part of NASA's Artemis program.
Blue Origin is preparing to launch its New Glenn rocket as early as Sunday morning, sending satellites into orbit. The booster has already flown once and was refurbished after being captured on a barge. Blue Origin's boosters are designed to support up to 25 flights each, a key aspect of the company's bid to reduce the cost of access to space. The mission is part of NASA's Artemis program, with Blue Origin working alongside SpaceX to develop vehicles to land astronauts on the moon. The launch window opens at 6:45 a.m. Sunday and lasts for two hours. The success of this mission will be crucial for Blue Origin's upcoming lunar lander missions.
