Blue Origin's next New Glenn launch follows its first failed mission, and is due to set a record for Amazon Leo satellite launches.
Blue Origin's Launch Complex 36 facilities, which cost more than $1 billion, absorbed heavy damages in the massive May 28 New Glenn rocket explosion.
The U.S. Space Force awarded Blue Origin a national security space mission for the National Reconnaissance Office, or NRO. Later that night, however, the space company’s New Glenn rocket exploded on the launch pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Base off the coast of Florida.
