Blue Origin Set To Fly Its Next Crewed Mission

Blue Origin is preparing its next crewed mission this month, its first with a crew in a year and a half.

This will be the first crewed mission since and second overall launch since a nozzle failure caused the flight termination system to trigger during a launch in September 2022. The mission will launch from the company⁘s West Texas launch site.

The company returned to flight over a year later after taking corrective actions with a successful sub-orbital flight that hosted 33 various science payloads.

The last crewed flight took place in August 2022, and all crewed flights have used the crew capsule RSS First Step, which has flown 8 times in total.
