Blue Origin reaches orbit on first flight of its titanic New Glenn rocket

Bypassing engine chill issues and a wayward boat, Blue Origin got to T-0.

At least one billionaire rocket made it to orbit today.

” The rocket's reusable first stage booster was due to land on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean after separating from its second stage, but failed to make that landing, Cornell confirmed. Telemetry from the booster blacked out minutes after liftoff.
"We did in fact lose the booster," Cornell said. Blue Origin did not explain why or by how much the booster missed its landing”

So parts of the rocket just fell apart uncontrollably.

USA is polluting the world, the space, and is putting the lives of people, animals and plants at risk.

Very irresponsible.

Blue Origin's launch succeeded, but most of the coverage today is of the Starship mission that failed.

Jeff Bezos has to be pissed. :o)

I think he views this as a turtle hare race.

Maybe so, but even when the hare pulls ahead, he still can't get attention.

I get it. There are two outcomes for the other guy. Crashing and burning. Probably literally. Storing urine in glass jars as a recluse.

"Jeff Bezos has to be pissed."

I mean the spacex rocket launched in the middle of the day and had amazingly high quality video. BO went out in the middle of the night with 2001 era webcams and bitrates.

So theres a very good reason starship got all the news.
