One of Blue Origin's best-known collaborators has now joined Jeff Bezos' #space venture to head the national security side of its business, in a move that's likely to sharpen competition with #SpaceX. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-hires-united-launch-alliance-ceo-tory-bruno-national-security-group/ #BlueOrigin #ULA #ToryBruno
UPDATE: Jeff Bezos' #BlueOrigin space venture postpones the first flight into space by a wheelchair user, due to a technical issue that came to light just minutes before today's scheduled launch. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-first-wheelchair-user-space/ #Space #Accessibility #NS37

While I believe Blue Origin's carnival ride is far from a historical landmark, this flight will surely do more for disability rights than the DS9 episode "Melora".
Jeff Bezos' #BlueOrigin space venture has another space history milestone on its launch manifest today: the first flight into space by a wheelchair user. Watch video coverage of the #NS37 mission carrying engineer Michaela Benthaus and five others. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-first-wheelchair-user-space/ #Space #Accessibility
Just as Spinal Tap turned the dial up to 11 on the band's amplifiers, Jeff Bezos' #BlueOrigin space venture is turning the dial up on its heavy-lift #NewGlenn rocket by adding two engines each to the first-stage booster and the second stage. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-supersizes-new-glenn-rocket/ #Space
So, #blueorigin lunched New Glenn and landed the first stage.
and no one really noticed.
I bet Jeff hates Elon SO MUCH!

During a #space industry forum in Australia, an executive at Jeff Bezos' #BlueOrigin space venture laid out plans to roll out three next-generation #NewShepard suborbital rocket ships, reportedly in response to high demand from ultra-high net worth customers. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-expand-new-shepard-suborbital-space/
NASA wants to hook up with commercial ventures that are working on vehicles that can transfer spacecraft to what are typically hard-to-reach orbits ... and #BlueOrigin says its #BlueRing could be just the thing. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-orbital-transfer-vehicles-nasa/ #space
Four years after bidding $28 million to take a suborbital ride on a #BlueOrigin#NewShepard rocket ship, #crypto billionaire #JustinSun finally takes what he calls his first step to #space. "We will have more," he says. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/crypto-justin-sun-28m-blue-origin-space/
A year ago, #crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun was the subject of an #SEC fraud investigation. Now that case has been put on hold, and Jeff Bezos' #BlueOrigin space venture says it'll finally be giving Sun his $28 million suborbital trip to the edge of space. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/crypto-billionaire-justin-sun-blue-origin/#Tron#Space#NewShepard
