Blue Origin's New Glenn: Launch Scrubbed

Blue Origin's ambitious New Glenn rocket launch was unexpectedly called off at the last minute due to a technical malfunction.

The 320-foot tall rocket, designed to carry a prototype satellite, experienced a critical issue in the final stages of the countdown sequence.

Safety protocols were immediately implemented; the launch team drained the rocket’s propellant, thereby mitigating any potential risks.

A rescheduled launch date is pending as the engineering team investigates the root cause of the problem and implements necessary corrective actions.
