One of the key questions about Blue Origin is whether it will push toward full reusability with New Glenn. In 2021, Ars first reported on an effort codenamed "Project Jarvis" to develop a stainless steel upper stage that could be reused. The company even built a test tank, although the effort was eventually shelved.

Blue Origin is preparing for its latest launch. This one, set for Tuesday morning, is intended to simulate the moon’s gravity and will fly 30 payloads, according to the company. The launch window for the New Shepard flight,

Blue Origin scrubbed a planned launch of its New Shepard rocket Tuesday due to persistent cloud cover at the west Texas launch site.

Paleontologists in Peru on Monday unveiled the 9-million-year-old fossil of a relative of the great white shark that once inhabited the waters of the southern Pacific Ocean, where it liked to devour sardines.

Blue Origin scored a major win with its New Glenn rocket launch, but SpaceX still leads the space industry with a Falcon fleet and upcoming Starship.

Going forward, SpaceX is likely to offer its gigantic Starship rocket as a competitor to New Glenn, and here, the advantage shifts back to SpaceX. Bigger than New Glenn (120 meters tall versus 98) and with a wider faring to encapsulate cargo (9 meters versus 7), SpaceX's Starship will boast a massive payload advantage over Blue Origin's new rocket.

Shrugging off bad weather, Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin launched its powerful New Glenn rocket on its maiden flight early Thursday, lighting up a cloudy overnight sky as it climbed away from Cape Canaveral in a high-stakes bid to compete with Elon Musk's industry-leading SpaceX.

Blue Origin is key to Amazon's ability to compete with SpaceX Starlink. Jeff Bezos has finally done it. He's finally reached space with an honest-to-goodness orbital-class rocket. Ten years ago, Bezos ignited a feud with SpaceX founder Elon Musk when his Blue Origin rocket company launched a suborbital New Shepard rocket to the edge of space and then landed it back on Earth.

John Oberst, head of Alaska Aerospace, went on the "Today" show to discuss what is being described as a “traffic jam” at the country’s spaceports.

The launch window for the New Shepard flight, NS-29, opened at 9 a.m. MT/11 a.m. ET at Launch Site One outside of Van Horn, Texas. The launch was placed on a weather hold shortly before 9:30 a.m. MT. Just before 11 a.m. MT, Blue Origin scrubbed the flight. It’s not yet clear when it will be rescheduled.

Blue Origin's NS-29 New Shepard rocket will launch on Jan. 28 at 11:30 a.m. EST (1630 GMT) if all goes well. Here's what to know
