On the evening of May 28 (local time), Blue Origin's "New Glenn Rocket" suffered an explosion during a static fire test. Shortly after, Bill Nelson, the head of the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), announced on social media that NASA had been duly notified about the incident. He emphasized that the margin for error in spaceflight is exceedingly narrow, and that pioneering new heavy-lift launch vehicle technology poses significant hurdles. NASA will work hand-in-hand with Blue Origin to conduct a thorough investigation into this anomaly, evaluate its ramifications for forthcoming missions, and strive to resume rocket launches at the earliest opportunity.
