Technology and Projects

New Shepard

New Shepard is Blue Origin's suborbital rocket designed for space tourism. It is a reusable launch vehicle that takes off and lands vertically. The rocket is named after Alan Shepard, the first American astronaut in space. New Shepard has successfully completed multiple test flights and is intended to carry passengers on short trips to the edge of space.

New Glenn

New Glenn is an orbital launch vehicle currently under development by Blue Origin. Named after John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth, New Glenn is designed to be a heavy-lift rocket capable of carrying payloads to geostationary transfer orbit and beyond. The rocket will feature a reusable first stage, similar to New Shepard.

BE-4 Engine

The BE-4 is a liquid rocket engine developed by Blue Origin. It uses liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquid oxygen (LOX) as propellants. The BE-4 engine is intended to power the first stage of the New Glenn rocket and has also been selected to power the United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Centaur rocket.

Goals and Vision

Blue Origin's long-term vision is to enable millions of people to live and work in space. The company aims to build a future where people can live and work in space to benefit Earth. Blue Origin is working on technologies that will allow for the sustainable use of space resources and the development of space infrastructure.
