Why choose between the Moon and Mars when you can explore both — and more? A production line of capable spacecraft means the list of destinations keeps growing while costs get lower.
Blue Ring provides communications and can host and deploy science and exploration payloads, all in a single vehicle. From the Moon, Mars, Venus, asteroids, and beyond, it’s all possible with Blue Ring.

Look what rolled in this morning! The payload fairing for New Glenn's third launch just arrived at the Integration Facility at LC-36 with @AST_SpaceMobile's BlueBird satellite safely secured inside.
The road to the Moon runs straight through Houston.
@blueorigin’s Blue Moon Mark 1 (MK-1) lunar lander has rolled into NASA Johnson Space Center after arriving at the Clear Lake dock and is headed into Chamber A—one of the world’s largest thermal-vacuum test facilities—where spacecraft are tested under the extreme cold, heat, and vacuum of space.
As part of @NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative and @NASAArtemis campaign, the lander is slated to carry two NASA science and technology payloads to the Moon, supporting future lunar exploration.
How will @NASAArtemis astronauts stay in touch with Earth during their 10-day mission to the Moon and back?
The Artemis II astronauts will rely on NASA’s Near Space Network and Deep Space Network to get vital voice, images, and science data to Earth. https://t.co/jANhQdJp3y
Following the conclusion of the wet dress rehearsal tanking test for the SLS rocket, @NASAAdmin Jared Isaacman confirms that the Artemis 2 mission is being delayed to no earlier than March. The first date available next month is March 6.
"The team will fully review the data, troubleshoot each issue encountered during WDR, make the necessary repairs, and return to testing," Isaacman said. "We expect to conduct an additional wet dress rehearsal and then target the March window."
