|May 30, 2026
Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket exploded in a massive fireball while undergoing a test on a Florida launchpad Thursday evening, dealing a major setback to the Jeff Bezos-backed firm in its efforts to challenge a dominant SpaceX.
-
The firm was preparing the vehicle for its fourth launch, which was slated to deploy a batch of satellites for Amazon.com Inc.’s Leo, a rival satellite network to SpaceX’s Starlink. None of the satellites was on the rocket when it exploded, a spokesperson for Amazon said.
“Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying,” Bezos wrote in a post on X.
The rocket experienced an “anomaly” during the test and all personnel have been accounted for and are safe, the company said on X.
