“We will redirect our people and resources toward further acceleration of our human lunar 🌙 capabilities inclusive of #NewGlenn” to fly New Glenn more frequently and deliver on cargo 📦 and crew 🧑🚀 lunar landers. The decision to end #NewShepard will inconvenience a few dozen very rich 💰 people waiting their turn to go into space

Top level peeps at Blue Origin told employees they are "pausing" flights of its New Shepard rocket to focus resources on "human lunar capabilities" aka future missions to land humans on the moon. Employees indicate they think this is the cancellation of the program. https://www.npr.org/2026/01/30/nx-s1-5694644/blue-origin-pauses-space-tourism-flights-to-focus-on-lunar-lander #Space #BlueOrigin #NewShepard #Moon #MoonLanding #Rocket #SpaceTravel #SpaceCraft #SpaceTourism

🚀👩🏻🚀 Blue Origin suspend les vols suborbitaux de #NewShepard pendant 2 ans, en vue "d'affecter ses employés et ses ressources vers une accélération supplémentaire de ses capacités lunaires humaines".
Depuis avril 2015, New Shepard a envoyé 200 expériences et 98 personnes en microgravité en 38 lancements, avec 36 atterrissages réussis du booster. -

"Paraplegic engineer becomes the first wheelchair user to blast into space" by @AssociatedPress - Suborbital passenger spaceflight by #BlueOrigin #NewShepard in Van Hor, Texas carried Michaela Benthaus, the first wheelchair user to fly to #space. The flight reached 105km / 65mi. Anything above 100km is good enough to claim a space flight. The curvature of the Earth is visible above about 15km / 9mi / 50,000ft. https://apnews.com/article/blue-origin-wheelchair-rocket-launch-e1b993bc7a66a1d587d94a0fb37aff8f #NewSpace #rocketry #tourism

Altitude alone isn't a sensible way to define an #astronaut. Flying on a commercial airliner ✈️ does not make you an aviator. Riding in a ferry ⛴️ does not make you a mariner. Stepping into a #rocket 🚀 is an insufficient condition for #astronaut wings.
Orbital #tourism must reach #orbital speeds of approximately 28,000 km per hour. Orbital tourists spend more time in Space 🌌 and travel farther from Earth https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/who-owns-outer-space/space-tourism/DC27962FB213D032D820504C173E9BD8 -

"Hans Koenigsmann, who investigated all of SpaceX’s rocket failures, is going to space" by @arstechnica / @sciguyspace - No longer working for SpaceX, Koenigsmann will fly on a #BlueOrigin #NewShepard suborbital rocket from their launch site in Van Horn TX. Though most in the industry seem to have no problem with that as long as he gets his turn to fly to space. https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/10/one-of-spacexs-earliest-employees-is-going-to-space-via-blue-origin/ #NewSpace #spacegeek
