Spectators on Saturday watched as Jacklyn, Blue Origin's rocket landing vessel, returned to Port Canaveral just as it left .

New Glenn's first-stage booster, called So You're Telling Me There's a Chance , was no where to be seen. Blue Origin had confirmed post-launch that the booster had been lost , however it was unknown if anything remained of that booster.

New Glenn took off on its inaugural flight early Thursday from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 36. The vehicle completed its main goal, which was to successfully reach orbit. Landing the first-stage booster would have been an added bonus.

Post-launch, the company unsuccessfully attempted a landing of the rocket's first-stage on the Jacklyn vessel, which is named for founder Jeff Bezos' mother.
