Blue Origin NEW Glenn is in BIG TROUBLE for the 1st Launch! No Engine Firing...
Blue Origin’s officials may exude confidence about New Glenn, their cutting-edge reusable rocket, making its highly anticipated debut by the end of 2024.
Yet, recent developments suggest that this timeline may be difficult to achieve.
So, what’s gone wrong with New Glenn?
How did Jeff Bezos react?
Let’s find out on today’s episode of Alpha Tech:
Blue Origin’s new orbital rocket, New Glenn, now stands tall and fully integrated on the test stand at Space Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. It awaits a highly anticipated hot fire test, a critical milestone that will evaluate both its first and second stages working in unison.

Although there have been reports suggesting that Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket has conducted a full-scale static fire test, from what I’ve observed through live videos from the site, there doesn’t seem to have been any significant activity—or perhaps it happened so briefly that I missed it. If anyone has more information about this New Glenn test, please share it in the comments! Sometimes, your contributions become valuable sources of knowledge that foster insightful discussions.
Completing a comprehensive test like this for New Glenn would mark a critical milestone in its journey toward the rocket’s maiden flight.
Under the leadership of Dave Limp, Blue Origin has already achieved significant milestones in New Glenn’s development. On October 30, 2024, the company successfully transported the enormous first stage of New Glenn to Launch Complex 36.

In September 2024, Blue Origin conducted a successful 15-second static fire test of New Glenn’s second stage. Powered by two BE-3U engines running on liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, the stage generated a combined thrust of 173,000 pounds. This was the most comprehensive test disclosed by the company since the inception of the New Glenn program.
However, do you imagine this progress came without setbacks?
While these achievements mark tangible progress, Blue Origin still faces significant challenges that could jeopardize New Glenn's ability to launch on schedule.
