#Blue Origin

🚀 Blue Origin is building a second launch complex, LC-36B, at Cape Canaveral following the May accident. 🔹 The new pad is intended for the super-heavy New Glenn 9×4 rocket (9 BE-4 engines on the first stage). 🔹 The rocket will be capable of delivering 70+ tons to LEO and 20+ tons to the Moon. 🔹 The company plans to resume launches by the end of 2026. 🔹 A new hybrid rocket assembly scheme is being implemented to accelerate preparation. #BlueOrigin #NewGlenn #SpaceNews #NASA

🚀 Blue Origin named the cause of the New Glenn explosion: a faulty valve in the BE-4 engine. The May 28 accident destroyed launch pad LC-36A. 🔥 🛠️ Engineers have already found a solution: a minor modification to the valve. Flights are planned to resume by the end of 2026. ⚠️ The issue also affects the Vulcan rocket from ULA, which uses the same engines. The Artemis program schedule is at risk.

The amount of space debris falling to Earth is growing geometrically due to the race for orbital dominance. Experts warn: by 2035, satellite debris could kill people every two years. 🛰️📉

The explosion of the New Glenn rocket from Blue Origin forced AST SpaceMobile to postpone the launch of satellite internet to 2027. 🚀 The company has already spent $1 billion on bonds to find new partners and reduce dependence on launch failures. 📡
