Blue Origin Big Trouble: New Glenn DAMAGED during Stress Test. NASA To Give Up...
Space is tough and rocket manufacturing is also not easy.
That's the bitter pill Blue Origin is enduring as it develops its first orbital rocket, New Glenn.
Indeed, while the public was eagerly awaiting New Glenn's debut launch, some pretty serious damages were done to the vehicle.
Not only rocket, but the accident also destroyed part of the infrastructure where the test occurred.
So how will this incident affect the upcoming mission and the overall progress of the Blue Origin rocket?
Find out everything in today's Techmap episode.
But before we begin, let's subscribe to the channel to stay up-to-date with the latest space news.
Blue Origin Big Trouble: New Glenn DAMAGED during Stress Test. NASA To Give Up...
Everyday astronaut's tour inside Blue Origin's New Glenn Factory gave the public a lot of confidence in what Blue Origin is doing. We can see clearly the mix of old space and new space approaches in their manufacturing lines. Additionally, in recent months, the company has enthusiastically shared videos and pictures related to New Glenn's hardware testing.
This demonstrates the company is on track to launch the rocket's upcoming missions on time, which start in October for a NASA mission called Escapade. This is a planned spacecraft mission to Mars consisting of two spacecraft known as Blue and Gold made by Rocket Lab, being sent by New Glenn. The mission is planned in October because at that time Mars will be close enough to Earth. After October, the planets won’t align like that again for roughly another two years.

Many expect the debut of the long-delayed rocket and the tour makes them excited to see what's coming.
However, two recent incidents on Blue Origin's rocket have sparked the concerns.
In August, Jeff Bezos's rocket company sustained failures of testing including a factory mishap that damaged a portion of a future New Glenn rocket.
The upper portion of one rocket crumpled into itself, in part due to worker error, while it was being moved to a storage hangar. In a separate incident, another upper rocket portion failed during stress testing and exploded. Repairs are underway, noting there were no injuries during either episode.
Fortunately, each time, it was a copy of the upper stage. The two mishaps involved hardware slated for the second and third flights of the New Glenn rocket, which are supposed to happen after the October debut.
