Blue Origin’s New Glenn Rocket Set for Historic First Launch
Blue Origin is set to make history with the launch of New Glenn, its long-awaited reusable rocket, after more than 13 years in development. The spacecraft, valued at $2.5 billion, has faced delays, but now the company has confirmed that the inaugural launch will take place no earlier than January 13, 2025. The three-hour launch window begins at 1 AM ET, and viewers can watch the event live on Blue Origin’s website, YouTube, and X (formerly Twitter), with the webcast starting an hour before liftoff.
