Jeff Bezosa is preparing for the New Glenn rocket launch in August this year. The Blue Origin Aerospace Company, which is also engaged in the creation of a new orbital station to replace the ISS, first connected two degrees of a new powerful New Glenn rocket, Space writes.

Subscribe not to miss the latest and most intrusive news from the world of science! Blue Origin, owned by a billionaire Jeff Beosa, has created a new heavy launch vehicle called New Glenn. Although the development process itself lasted more than 10 years. She has never flew into space, although the first test flight was appointed for 2020. Since then, the test flight has been transmitted and now it is known that the debut launch of New Glenn should take place in August this year.

As focus has already wrote, Blue Origin won the NASA tender for orbiting Mars of two identical ESCAPADE mission devices. This tender was also attended by Ilona Mask SpaceX, but because of the unsuccessful two launches of the latest Starship rocket, the US space agency preferred Jeff Bezosa. It is these devices that will bring the New Glenn rocket carrier in space during the first start.

The launch carrier, consisting of two degrees, will have a height of 98 meters and will be able to deliver 50 tons of amounts of amounts to a low Earth orbit. Thus, the load capacity of the Blue Origin rocket is almost 2 times higher than that of Falcon 9 missiles from SpaceX. Blue Origin reported that the engineers first connected two degrees of the latest rocket at the LC-36 starting complex on Cape Canaveral to start preparing for the debut launch in space.

A new rocket pictures were also published. The New Glenn rocket with its competitor Falcon 9 is that the first stages of two space transporters are designed for reusable use. The New Glenn rocket will be equipped with the Be-4 seven engines created by Blue Origin. By the way, these engines have successfully shown themselves on January 8 this year, because they were equipped with a new rocket carrier from the United Launch Alliance called Vulcan.

This rocket has successfully poisoned in its first flight into space and launched the PEREGRINE landing module from Astrobotic, as focus has already written. But this apparatus, designed to land on the moon, encountered a problem in the motor system and flew the satellite of the Earth, turned back and burned in the atmosphere of our planet, as the focus has already written. We remind that a few days ago the module of Slim, which was created in Japan, made a successful landing.
