@SciGuySpace Itโs time to focus on advancing NG and Lunar. NS & BE-3PM are incredible but if youโre gonna pause, now is the time. We still got work to do.. ๐ค๐ค๐ค
While this is shocking & sad, itโs also an acknowledgment of the work that remains at @blueorigin. Iโve loved being a part of NS & BE-3PM & getting to work w/ the best people in the industry.
We now shift to NG & Lunar objectives to push mankind further

@colt_staake@blueorigin Hey Colt!! Heck yeah I remember you buddy! We spent way too much time in the transporter for me to forget you.. haha wait.. that sounded terrible. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year dude! ๐ค
Couldnโt prouder of my @blueorigin BE-3PM teammates and New Shepard partners on another milestone for improving access to space for all. Go Blue Origin, Go New Shepard ๐#newshepard
We just completed our 37th flight of the New Shepard program. The crew onboard included: Michaela (Michi) Benthaus, Joey Hyde, Hans Koenigsmann, Neal Milch, Adonis Pouroulis, and Jason Stansell. New Shepard has flown 92 humans (86 individuals) to space. Read more: https://t.co/j3OFWyOnuG
Weโre pleased to announce that @torybruno is joining Blue Origin as president, National Security, reporting to CEO Dave Limp. Tory will spearhead our newly formed National Security Group.
Iโve never been so proud of any program (other than ISS ๐). The achievement of #newglenn today is a direct reflection of a unified vision across all @blueorigin.
NS -> NG.
This photo represents so much more than most people will ever understand. #newglenn#teamblue
When you work across teams and use one program to develop the other, we now see that the successes weโve had on #newshepard are enabling #newglenn to achieve incredible things! Total team effort on full display at @blueorigin
What a phenomenal achievement!! Landed that big beautiful booster on the 2nd try! Congrats to @blueorigin and all my colleagues who have worked around the clock to make this happen! Honored to work at such an amazing and boundary pushing company!

NG-2 Update: New Glenn is ready to launch. However, due to highly elevated solar activity and its potential effects on the ESCAPADE spacecraft, NASA is postponing launch until space weather conditions improve. We are currently assessing opportunities to establish our next launch window based on forecasted space weather and range availability.
As New Glenn upends on the Transporter Erector (TE), the load shifts from the horizontal support system to the vertical supports around 74 degrees. Near 89.5 degrees, we pause for a final check, then pin the TE in place using clamps on the launch table that mate to the aft launch ring. Checkouts then hotfireโฆ
