2025-01-13
Blue Origin is preparing for the maiden flight of its massive reusable rocket, New Glenn, under the NG-1 mission. Launching from Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, this flight will carry the Blue Ring Pathfinder payload and serve as the vehicle's first National Security Space Launch certification flight. The first stage will autonomously land on an ocean platform hundreds of miles downrange, while the second stage will deploy the payload into a medium Earth orbit (MEO). This launch marks a significant step for Blue Origin in heavy-lift launch capabilities and heralds a new era of space exploration.
