Our engine shop at Rocket Park continues to hum. The next BE-4 shipset is ready for install on our third New Glenn booster.

Sharing a couple photos of our GS2s in build and getting their final touches inside our Rocket Park Factory. It's getting a little crowded, but that's exactly the point, manufacturing rate matters.

Because you asked, here is another shot of our GS2-5 hotfire test at LC-36. This is from our drone, giving us this new view.

We hot fired New Glenn’s GS2 serial number five last night, with the BE-3U engines ramping up to 175K of thrust. Love seeing the continuous flow of GS2s on the Space Coast!

We’re all in!

Blue Ring is a super capable spacecraft. Excited to see what it does for the Solar System

@PallottaPedro Good eye!  This is the aft module of our third New Glenn booster on its way to LC-36 for acceptance testing.

PEÇA DO NEW GLENN EM MOVIMENTO! A Blue Origin está movimentando a saia de motores do primeiro estágio do New Glenn, que é onde também ficam as pernas de pouso. Não se sabe para qual booster será esta peça e muito menos quando ela irá voar, mas é muito legal este trânsito da Flórida! by @jaycastrophotos

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.

@NASASpaceflight @AST_SpaceMobile Flight 3 will reuse booster 2

@davill @AST_SpaceMobile Super! Is Blue able to confirm if Flight 3's booster is the new Tail 3, or reusing Tail 2?

Another look. We've integrated @AST_SpaceMobile's Block 2 BlueBird satellite into our third New Glenn fairing. For the first time, encapsulation took place in our Lunar Plant 1 high bay. The payload will now move to the integration facility at LC-36, transported by a specially built transporter that can crab laterally and spin 360° around its center without translation in any direction.

Endurance, our MK1 lunar lander, has entered Chamber A for approximately 11 days of TVAC testing to simulate the extreme thermal and vacuum conditions it will experience in space and on the lunar surface. Thanks to the team @NASA_Johnson for the collaboration as we reach this critical step on our path to the Moon.

America’s best…building The Arsenal of Freedom. Thank you @JeffBezos!

Our Blue Moon MK1 Lunar Lander is about to go through it’s thermal vacuum chamber (TVAC) testing at @NASA_Johnson.    We're conducting this test in Chamber A, one of the largest vacuum chambers in the country at 90 feet tall and 55 feet in diameter. Despite those massive dimensions, it will be a tight squeeze rolling MK1 through the 40-foot door. Once sealed inside Chamber A, we'll remove virtually all air to create a near-perfect vacuum that closely replicates space. MK1 will then be exposed to temperature extremes ranging from -50°C to +30°C. We'll be performing both thermal balance and full mission testing at the hot and cold plateaus. This will prove that MK1 can maintain thermal equilibrium and perform its mission in space. MK1 joins the legacy of historic missions like Apollo and James Webb Space Telescope tested in this same chamber.

Docking? ✅ Our Blue Docking System team successfully completed soft capture system testing at @NASA_Johnson's Six-Degree-Of-Freedom Dynamic Test facility. This test completes a key milestone on our Commercial LEO Destinations (CLD) contract. The fully vertically integrated system will fly first on our Blue Moon MK2 Lunar Lander, then on Orbital Reef and future vehicles. This marks the first time we have confirmed the performance of our pressurized docking system in flight-like scenarios, meeting International Docking System Standard requirements.

Congratulations to the NS-38 crew and @BlueOrigin on a successful flight. A doctor, military veteran, entrepreneurs, sustainability advocate, and a leader whose work makes New Shepard missions possible, now experiencing it herself. Six different paths, but one shared experience above the Kármán line.

What makes TeraWave different? It is purpose-built for enterprise customers. Unmatched speeds of up to 6 Tbps through a multi-orbit constellation of 5,280 LEO and 128 MEO satellites with both RF and optical links. Globally distributed customers can each access up to 144 Gbps of capacity through Q/V-band links from LEO satellites, while up to 6 Tbps point-to-point capacity can be accessed through optical links from MEO satellites. This provides the reliability and resilience needed for real-time operations and massive data movement. It also provides backup connectivity during outages, keeping critical operations running. Plus, the ability to scale on demand and rapidly deploy globally while maintaining performance. Looking forward to supporting our customers with this capability.

Blue Moon MK1 left for the port today ahead of shipment to Houston. Introducing Endurance. Named for Ernest Shackleton’s legendary ship that journeyed to Earth’s South Pole, MK1 honors resilience under pressure. That same spirit of perseverance guides our mission to the lunar South Pole.
