The previous rocket New Shepard Could only reach the edge of space But watching the New Glenn live stream countdown keep getting so close only to get pushed back over and over Seems like they were edging getting to space even harder this time 😂
@@argus9609 That was their second launch. And that was within the specification, therefore not an issue. That's why they are getting their certification.
I hope Blue Origin succeeds in their first attempt to launch BONG, it will be a massive success if everything goes without a problem, including the first landing, but I won't be surprised if they failed to nail the landing. Competition is good.
i dont particularly support bo but i also dont hold them at fault for scrubbing, they havent flown the thing before so an excess of caution is understandable
New Glenn has Double the fairings size ! It can launch modules for the new space station / launch Dream Chaser / modules for the moon base and their moon landed.
It's something between. Falcon heavy has just slightly higher payload capacity if they recover all boosters. However NG has much bigger fairing which is important. I bet majority of all three (four) rockets payload will be internet satellites anyway. So the difference between payload capacity isn't as important as price per kg into LEO. I believe SX has superior manufacturing capabilities which will greatly affect the price. They tweaked their processes while building all those prototypes which later exploded.
Yup NG was designed to compete with Falcon 9, even though Falcon 9 can get more tonnage to orbit. Falcon 9 has *over 300 successful payloads to orbit* compared to NG at zero. In fact BO was founded before SpaceX, yet they still have nothing to orbit at all. Starship is a next gen, FULLY reusable vehicle with several times the capacity of NG. Also Starship has been in development for 5.5 years, as opposed to NG which has been dawdling for 13 years.
Well we like to see the footage and daylight would be perfect, however the non visual data is incredible valuable and i would guess they are mainly focused on that data, if they get some visuals sure they will take it but telemetry, and heating data the main goal
That what's Spaceflightnow says but still no official word from Blue Origin. Seriously doubt they can turn around and troubleshoot a scrub in less than 24 hours
Maybe just me but the fact they kept pushing back the T0 shows the teams still have some ways to go before they 'fully' understand the rocket. I think the is perfectly normal though considering this is the first launch of this 'grade' of rocket for the company. I say that because more 'experienced' operators would have had a better idea, much sooner, that the issues they were working through would not actually get resolved by the end of the window, ie a more 'experienced' team would have called a scrub much sooner rather than push back T0 soooo many times. This is hardly much of a critique though. They've not built up the experience in all the nuances of a highly complex system. Whilst BO have launched New Shephard many times, New Glenn is a totally different class of beast, and they've only 'really' had a WDR and static fire to really get to grips with a countdown 'in real life'. I'm hoping, for their sake they learn these quickly as it will.make their operations much smoother when they do.
@@ericrmccormick Yeah dude, ULA and their workers suck! SpaceX, Blue Origin and their workers suck too! No, they don't. Their psychopathic CEO suck, not the workers. And even then, when it comes to ULA, the current CEO, Tori Bruno, isn't even a billionaire and he is an engineer, not like the other ones. His wife is. And members of his family and his wife's family worked on the Apollo program as engineers as well I think... Stop conflating fascist psychos like Musk, Bezos and the likes to the workers they despise and treat like sh!t.
Anyone know the distance from LC36 to the position offshore in the Atlantic where "Jacklyn" is stationed awaiting New Glenns First stage? Also, as a comparison, the distance offshore in the Atlantic where the SpaceX landing barges are stationed awaiting the First/Core stages of the Falcon 9 and Heavy? I assume the distances must vary with every launch of these three vehicles, depending upon the weight and destination of their payloads. Hi from New Zealand.🇳🇿🌴🌊
Based on the almost routine nature of SpaceX launches many forget just how complex launching a rocket really is. Not only does everything have to be ok with the rocket but also with all the ground support equipment. In a first attempt there are thousands of failure scenarios and only one that brings success. New Glenn is an extremely complex rocket attempting to match what the Falcon rockets have made us think is easy.
B.O.’s PR sucks. Next time, just freeze the clock and give us more DETAILS on what the problem is please. Of course they don’t have to tell us anything since they’re a private company but they know everyone is watching and supporting them so it would be nice in the future. It’s really not that hard for them.
They need to evacuate the nearby area, but that would disrupt operations too significantly during the day. So, they launch at night to minimize disruption.
I still remember when NG was supposed to take off and lad at sea, and Blue Origin was boasting how they wouldn’t be affected by weather for launch (they were throwing shade at SpaceX having to wait for recovery ship conditions) and yet, now here we are. Also, their livestream was very cringe…like a corporate entity trying to be “cool” kind of vibes. Oh, and is ULA still for sale?
They don't always show up. That's the problem with such complex systems and it's why for every flight no matter who's doing it they check and double check and recheck so much.
Well I've watched every launch attempt they have had. I won't be watching anymore. When they finally actually do something I'll watch the replays. Well, if I'm still alive. Anyway they have to find another sucker to set there as they count down till it looks like they might go only to reset things again and again. I feel like Charley Brown trying to kick the football. Everytime time Lucy gets Charley Brown fired up only to pull the ball away and make him a fool for believing she will not pull the ball away again. No more BO. l'm not looking at anything till you fire it off. Not stories, not videos, not interviews, not even posts about launch dates or status reports. You've pulled your last prank, told your last whopper.

Agreed. I can't stand the man, and I really don't like their rockets either, but competition is a good thing and I won't blame them for taking time to work through issues.

There’s no foul in scrubbing the first launch of a new, complex system. However, the company coverage of the launch was horrendous, basically providing zero information. The lack of transparency about the (apparently several) anomalies is also troubling. This is, at least in part, a publicly-funded project, the results of which have national security implications. The unwillingness to be forthcoming is absolutely unacceptable. Get rid of the ditzy booth-babes form the various PR departments and put on people who understand and can explain the technical aspects of what is happening (or not happening). If Blue Origin is unwilling to communicate with the public, terminate government contracts and move on to other providers with proven track records and a willingness to be transparent with the citizens who are funding this over-budget, behind-schedule project.
Starship test flight had tech issue too, They tried to fix it at first and 20 minutes later they canceled the launch. I was disappointed at the time. But what Blue Origin did last night was ridiculous. On one hand they keep saying they'll learn from launch no matter what's the outcome, but when the problem arising they wouldn't be able to face it that they couldn't fix it in time and keep saying they want to make sure the weather will be OK in 20 or 30 minutes.
Yeah, but Starship is a next gen, FULLY reusable ship with several times the cargo capacity of NG. Also Starship has been in development for 5.5 years, as opposed to NG which has been siphoning billions for the last 13 years. Compare to SpaceX which funded their own development.

@@Contrarian-ol2bc I didn't compare both rockets. I compared how SpaceX and BO treats their viewers when problem arising. BO should have call it off after 2nd delay.
@@atkinsyk4252bud their business is launching rockets as soon as possible and not entertaining masses. It's just a side PR thing and in fact it isn't needed at all. Plesse understand this.
Must be as frustrating for all those working on the project, as it is for people watching. As stated this is a brand new vehicle and better a launch delay to address every issue no matter how minor. Also it is understandable wanting perfect weather for the flight to remove weather complications from causing the launch to fail. Hopefully we get to watch a successful launch and return to earth soon!
Thia hspprns when there isn't enough test launches. It is actually faster to launch with anticipated explosions just to find out what doesn't work.. But when it isn't possible/allowed to mske disposable test units this happens.
Maybe BO should have taken a page from SpaceX, launching numerous smaller rockets to test the various systems and increasing in size and complexity with each iteration.
@@TheEvilmooseofdoom While what you say is historically accurate NASA got us to the moon only by throwing nearly unlimited money at the moon program. That model hasn't worked since then, as evidenced by the fact that we haven't returned to the moon after 50+ years.
If can't 100% guarantee to successful launch & Booster come back landing on the platform raft..Then SCRUB the launch is the only way. We can wait 1day, 2 days, 7 days...until the 100% reached. Following the early days of SpaceX & Sea Launch..as well as RD-180 rockets PERIOD.
There really is no need for Blue Origin to match spacex vis-a-vis when landing the first stage -- on a barge on the ocean. Sure, it's great advertisement & shows you can compete with spacex. But, just have it splash down to the water already.
@ congrats on being a jackass. Somebody knows the answer. We have answers for the amount of Delta V used to turn around the starship first stage . The numbers are also known for the boot bag burns for the falcon heavy first stage, reentry burns, and approximate landing burns. It’s a perfectly reasonable question. What are you in high school or something?
@ congratulations on being a jackass. What are you in high school or something? Somebody will know the answer. The numbers are known for what it takes to do the boost back burn for the starship booster. The numbers are also known for falcon nine boost back burns and reentry burns. It’s a perfectly reasonable question because it helps to figure out how much fuel needs to be held in reserve, which affects the first stage performance.
What a joke .... how many times are jokers going to do this ... they are failures !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lucky for JB he didn't run Amazon the same way !
Assuming it is successful and assuming Starship gets fully functional, what is the point of NASA's SLS? Nothing reusable. Just sucks money away from successful programs and interplanetary missions.
What a joke! Bezos just can't let his baby go. You may as well put New Glen in a museum where Bezos can admire it and make love to it. He just doesn't have the nerve to launch.
They are using different tech and working hard what is the ignorant negativity to this effort. At least Mr. Bezos is doing more than his critics are doing, I wish all success
So are the anomalies at launch a result of failure to physically test? Let's see how the New Glenn cryogenic fuels handling goes when in orbit. It really caused more problems to SpaceX than both NASA's and DoD early launches could have suggested.
@imaginary_friend7300 reliable fuel flow and ice formation within the flowing fuel. Cameras within the tanks has helped SpaceX identify the problems and the engineers developing solutions, which New Glenn hasn't received.
I get the feeling that the SpaceX launch sequence is much more automated, and perhaps their preflight checks finds weaknesses to be fixed and or the subsystems are much more reliable. Also, programming is more reliable. AI?
This company is well known for choosing to go slow. Very, very, slow. Incredibly slow. That said, I would be willing to bet that they get this rocket in the air in 2025. They may succeed in the whole mission by 2027. And by 2030 they will be putting stuff up competitively into space every half year or so... Well, sort of. They may compete with Falcon Heavy. However, by that time the rocket will be 14 years old and outdated. That is the problem with making going slow your biggest feature. It's not competitive in real time, thus becoming a practice in spending money rather than flying rockets, and not much more...
New Glenn and Starship have been in development for the exact same periods of time. Starship is expected to launch on its 7th flight during January 2025 after demonstrating a successful booster catch by Mechazilla arms on its launch tower in 2024.
And Nee Glenn is expected to reach orbit on it’s first launch meanwhile Starship still hasn’t reached orbit after 6 launches. Starship is incredible, but not that far ahead in its development
@@shadowfalcon165 You can't compare the tests of low fidelity throw away test articles that are made during development with something that has completed development. Starship is not ahead in development.
@@shadowfalcon165 Starship basically reached orbit on IFT-4. They chose not to go orbital because they weren't confident about the de-orbit burn. If we are only slightly lenient, Starship has had 3 orbital flights. Neither rocket is operational, so the race is not finished yet. If the launch of New Glenn is an unmitigated success before Starship Flight 7, Blue Origin will have passed SpaceX in the milestones.
I watched....for an hour or 2. Evidently Blue Origin has no white males on staff. One reporter after another after another was female and DEI. To make matters worse, the broadcast was based on Spacex launches, complete w "clever snd cute-sy" names. When Spacex broadcasts, there are both male and females involved. DEI is not evident....only Meritocracy - and it shows. The level of analysis last night was disappointing to say the least. New Glenn will launch.. i have no doubt...but I will stream it on RUclips AFTER the fact so I don't have to be exposed to their politically correct drivel.
I don't get what that has to do with anything. All their communications people happened to be female that day but plenty of males were given credit during the webcast too, all of which were caucasian, not that it really matters. If you're good at your job, that's what matters. I watched the whole time too. SpaceX also has a lot of female comms people and that's under Musk who is proudly on the right now.
I don't like Bezos & I would'nt piss on Elon if he were on fire but I love me some rockets!! Having said that, I do like Peter Beck & cannot wait to see Neutron launch later this year!!
They never intended to launch there were problems with the engines from the very beginning basil and the whole team knew so. It was all just a lie it was all just attention getting and it was nothing because SpaceX is getting ready to launch starship. The only thing they had going was a Glenn shot well look like in a pretty production team that's it

So if you're going to compare you need to get it right.
NG was designed to compete with Falcon 9, even though Falcon 9 can get more tonnage to orbit. Falcon 9 has *over 300 successful payloads to orbit* compared to NG at zero. In fact BO was founded before SpaceX, yet they still have nothing to orbit at all.
@@Contrarian-ol2bc I didn't compare both rockets. I compared how SpaceX and BO treats their viewers when problem arising. BO should have call it off after 2nd delay.
@@atkinsyk4252bud their business is launching rockets as soon as possible and not entertaining masses. It's just a side PR thing and in fact it isn't needed at all. Plesse understand this.
Rather scub it than explode like Starship did
What starship ever exploded on launch?
Must be as frustrating for all those working on the project, as it is for people watching. As stated this is a brand new vehicle and better a launch delay to address every issue no matter how minor. Also it is understandable wanting perfect weather for the flight to remove weather complications from causing the launch to fail. Hopefully we get to watch a successful launch and return to earth soon!
Thia hspprns when there isn't enough test launches. It is actually faster to launch with anticipated explosions just to find out what doesn't work.. But when it isn't possible/allowed to mske disposable test units this happens.
Maybe BO should have taken a page from SpaceX, launching numerous smaller rockets to test the various systems and increasing in size and complexity with each iteration.
BO went with the development path that the legacy people use. It's the system that got people to the moon. Both have their pro's and cons.
@@TheEvilmooseofdoom While what you say is historically accurate NASA got us to the moon only by throwing nearly unlimited money at the moon program. That model hasn't worked since then, as evidenced by the fact that we haven't returned to the moon after 50+ years.
If can't 100% guarantee to successful launch & Booster come back landing on the platform raft..Then SCRUB the launch is the only way. We can wait 1day, 2 days, 7 days...until the 100% reached. Following the early days of SpaceX & Sea Launch..as well as RD-180 rockets PERIOD.
Hopefully, these problems will not be symptomatic of problems in the rocket itself. Does anyone want to bet on it?
Space is HARD.
There really is no need for Blue Origin to match spacex vis-a-vis when landing the first stage -- on a barge on the ocean. Sure, it's great advertisement & shows you can compete with spacex. But, just have it splash down to the water already.
Shout out to all the adolescent trolls in the comments section!
I'm not sure New Glenn has a Wet rehearsal... so this will be it and it was not successful.
It had a wet dress before this.
HOW DISAPPOINTING AND EMBARRASSING FOR JEFF BOZO & BLUE ORIGIN ! ! ! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Not really, but I am now convinced you are a simpleton and that everything you say is likely going to be ridiculous.
Maybe try and sound more enthusiastic about the subject?
What a let down at least SpaceX is consistent. I am looking forward to Flight 7.
Was they consistent in the beginning
The star ship only landed once and it was a hard landing and it caught fire
Always delay mr.delay afraid to failure Elon musk not afraid they learn in every failure.
So you mean there is a chance... it will launch before 2026??? Yes, theoretically.
How much Delta V does the first stage expand for the reentry burn?
Congrats on playing KSP for 10 hours and learning a big boy term like delta V and asking a 'smart' sounding question that no one has the answer to
@ congrats on being a jackass. Somebody knows the answer. We have answers for the amount of Delta V used to turn around the starship first stage . The numbers are also known for the boot bag burns for the falcon heavy first stage, reentry burns, and approximate landing burns. It’s a perfectly reasonable question. What are you in high school or something?
@ congratulations on being a jackass. What are you in high school or something? Somebody will know the answer. The numbers are known for what it takes to do the boost back burn for the starship booster. The numbers are also known for falcon nine boost back burns and reentry burns. It’s a perfectly reasonable question because it helps to figure out how much fuel needs to be held in reserve, which affects the first stage performance.
This video is as padded as the launch wait was.
What a joke .... how many times are jokers going to do this ... they are failures !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lucky for JB he didn't run Amazon the same way !
Glory to SpaceX 🚀
JEFF BOZO & BLUE ORIGIN SHOULD JUST GIVE UP NOW & LET ELON MUSK RUN THE SHOW ! ! ! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
You're being simple..
Instead of calling it New Glenn, they should call it "Old Sitting Bull"
red bull gives wings
Better luck next. You are the tortoise in the race.
Assuming it is successful and assuming Starship gets fully functional, what is the point of NASA's SLS? Nothing reusable. Just sucks money away from successful programs and interplanetary missions.
10 years not enough time to build a rocket lol
Enough for SpaceX.
Supposedly they are attempting launch tonight. Hopefully the issue doesn’t come up again and we get a good launch
Tonight? Citation please?
Trying to Gleen some free interest from the big kid on the block
Like foot ball team Viking in MN: Don't worry we'll have next year...
Maybe they need to replace their presenters?
10+ years of delay and counting
Scrubs not RUDs
I’m 30 minutes from watch spot on the river and lm now scared to drive over!
What a joke! Bezos just can't let his baby go. You may as well put New Glen in a museum where Bezos can admire it and make love to it. He just doesn't have the nerve to launch.
Yup. Safety First never gets anything done.
Just updated going to attempt again tonight
It will scrub again tonight.
Bezo couldn't get it up, maybe he needs to put some little blue pills in the fuel tanks, especially since it's Old Glenn now
🤡
The CEO of BO is a guy named 'Limp', you can't make this shit up.
They are using different tech and working hard what is the ignorant negativity to this effort. At least Mr. Bezos is doing more than his critics are doing, I wish all success
Stupid people think they look smart by parroting other stupid people. 99% of these drones don't actually have a clue what's going on.
They never intended to launch it was all just an Amazon trick again
Now January 16
So are the anomalies at launch a result of failure to physically test? Let's see how the New Glenn cryogenic fuels handling goes when in orbit. It really caused more problems to SpaceX than both NASA's and DoD early launches could have suggested.
Usually means sensors are reporting something out of spec. What problems have cryogenics causes spacex in orbit?
@imaginary_friend7300 reliable fuel flow and ice formation within the flowing fuel. Cameras within the tanks has helped SpaceX identify the problems and the engineers developing solutions, which New Glenn hasn't received.
Nice looking rocket!
Great report as always!!!
This is clickbait there's no info here.
Hey, does the New Glenn have free amazon prime shipping ? That would save NASA and the US Military billions every year. (kidding) 😂
I get the feeling that the SpaceX launch sequence is much more automated, and perhaps their preflight checks finds weaknesses to be fixed and or the subsystems are much more reliable. Also, programming is more reliable. AI?
NG was scrubbed so many times that you would think it was being run by a cleaning crew
This company is well known for choosing to go slow. Very, very, slow. Incredibly slow.
That said, I would be willing to bet that they get this rocket in the air in 2025. They may succeed in the whole mission by 2027. And by 2030 they will be putting stuff up competitively into space every half year or so... Well, sort of. They may compete with Falcon Heavy.
However, by that time the rocket will be 14 years old and outdated.
That is the problem with making going slow your biggest feature. It's not competitive in real time, thus becoming a practice in spending money rather than flying rockets, and not much more...
Maybe because they didn't do a WDR (I may be wrong)
No, the first launch attempt is like a Blue Origin WDR.
Jeff, stick 2 selling & delivering books & dog food, leave the rocket business 2 the professionals.
I love that!
New Glenn and Starship have been in development for the exact same periods of time. Starship is expected to launch on its 7th flight during January 2025 after demonstrating a successful booster catch by Mechazilla arms on its launch tower in 2024.
And Nee Glenn is expected to reach orbit on it’s first launch meanwhile Starship still hasn’t reached orbit after 6 launches. Starship is incredible, but not that far ahead in its development
@@shadowfalcon165 You can't compare the tests of low fidelity throw away test articles that are made during development with something that has completed development. Starship is not ahead in development.
@@imaginary_friend7300I expect BO to begin iterative development immediately after the first launch...
Actually blue origin was founded two years before SpaceX
@@shadowfalcon165 Starship basically reached orbit on IFT-4. They chose not to go orbital because they weren't confident about the de-orbit burn. If we are only slightly lenient, Starship has had 3 orbital flights.
Neither rocket is operational, so the race is not finished yet. If the launch of New Glenn is an unmitigated success before Starship Flight 7, Blue Origin will have passed SpaceX in the milestones.
News Flash, New Glenn launch scheduled for NET Thursday at 1am EST
Don't you want to say "Space is hard"?
Anyone but muxrat
I watched....for an hour or 2. Evidently Blue Origin has no white males on staff. One reporter after another after another was female and DEI. To make matters worse, the broadcast was based on Spacex launches, complete w "clever snd cute-sy" names. When Spacex broadcasts, there are both male and females involved. DEI is not evident....only Meritocracy - and it shows. The level of analysis last night was disappointing to say the least. New Glenn will launch.. i have no doubt...but I will stream it on RUclips AFTER the fact so I don't have to be exposed to their politically correct drivel.
I don't get what that has to do with anything. All their communications people happened to be female that day but plenty of males were given credit during the webcast too, all of which were caucasian, not that it really matters. If you're good at your job, that's what matters. I watched the whole time too. SpaceX also has a lot of female comms people and that's under Musk who is proudly on the right now.
So woke...
lcarlson has his own boatload of political drivel going on so he should be immune to it coming from anywhere else. 🙄
I don't like Bezos & I would'nt piss on Elon if he were on fire but I love me some rockets!! Having said that, I do like Peter Beck & cannot wait to see Neutron launch later this year!!
They never intended to launch there were problems with the engines from the very beginning basil and the whole team knew so. It was all just a lie it was all just attention getting and it was nothing because SpaceX is getting ready to launch starship. The only thing they had going was a Glenn shot well look like in a pretty production team that's it
The joke continues . . .
