PlanGeneralValue 4.3Nov 6, 2025Florida Space Coast doubleader: SpaceX launches, ULA scrubbed

New Glenn's second launch is scheduled for no earlier than Sunday, November 9, from LC-36.

PlanGeneralValue 4.0Nov 5, 2025RT by @GewoonLukas_: 🚀 Launch Alert | We're targeting New Glenn's second launch no earlier than Sunday, November 9, from LC-36. NG-2 will send @NASA's ESCAPADE twin spacecraft on their journey to Mars and carry a @Viasat technology demonstration for @NASASpaceOps' Communications Services Project.

New Glenn boosters are already in production.

PlanCapabilityGrowthValue 2.0Nov 5, 2025RT by @GewoonLukas_: NG-1's goal was clear: reach orbit, everything after that was a bonus. NG-2 builds on that with our primary goal to get Escapade safely to orbit and land the booster. What if we don't stick the landing? That's ok. We've got several more New Glenn boosters already in production. In this mission, we will be delivering @NASA's ESCAPADE to orbit and supporting @Viasat's technology demonstration. Onwards to launch!

The EscaPADE probes will be sent to Launch Complex 36 for mating to the New Glenn rocket.

RelationshipsPlanValue 4.0Oct 31, 2025NASA's 2 EscaPADE probes, "Blue" & "Gold", have been encapsulated inside of New Glenn's payload fairing! Soon it'll head to LC-36 for mating to the rocket. Together with their ESPA-ring, the 2 probes only take up about 1.5% of the available volume in New Glenn's massive fairing.

All seven engines of the New Glenn launch vehicle performed nominally during the hotfire test.

CapabilityPlanValue 4.0Oct 31, 2025RT by @GewoonLukas_: We completed a successful hotfire of our fully integrated New Glenn launch vehicle at LC-36! All seven engines performed nominally with a 38 second duration test including all seven engines operating at 100% thrust for 22 seconds.

New Glenn's seven BE-4 engines successfully completed a hotfire test.

CapabilityPlanValue 4.0Oct 31, 2025RT by @GewoonLukas_: Love seeing New Glenn's seven BE-4 engines come alive! Congratulations to Team Blue on today's hotfire. We extended the hotfire duration this time to simulate the landing burn sequence by shutting down the non-gimballed engines after ramping down to 50 percent thrust, then shutting down the outboard gimballed engines while ramping the center engine to 80 percent thrust. This helps us understand fluid interactions between active and inactive engine feedlines during landing. Next, we will mate @NASA's ESCAPADE payload to the launch vehicle and enter final preparations for launch.
