New Glenn

The Foundation for a New Era

Reusable for Affordability and Availability

New Glenn's first stage is designed for a minimum of 25 flights. By operating like a commercial airliner (but with cleaner fuel), New Glenn will lead to significantly less waste and cost.

Twice the Volume

Seven meters. With twice the volume of smaller, five-meter class payload fairings, customers have more flexibility to package their payload in new ways.

Single Configuration for Maximum Flexibility and Savings

New Glenn is designed to accommodate a variety of payloads and destinations to meet the broadest range of customer needs, and significantly reduce cost per launch.

Liquid Hydrogen-Powered Upper Stage Optimized for Performance


New Glenn will launch payloads into high-energy orbits. It can carry more than 13 metric tons to geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) and 45 metric tons to low Earth orbit (LEO).

First Step Toward Our Vision

New Glenn is named after John Glenn, the first American to orbit Earth. The rocket is engineered with the safety and redundancy required to fly humans, and will enable our vision of building a road to space for the benefit of Earth.

High-Performing, American-Made Engines

Reusable First Stage Powered by Seven BE-4 Engines

Powerful

The vehicle is powered by seven of the most powerful liquid oxygen (LOX) / liquefied natural gas (LNG)-fueled oxygen-rich staged combustion engines ever flown. Each BE-4 engine is reusable and generates 550,000 lbf (2,450 kN) thrust at sea level with deep-throttle capability.

Proven

Two BE-4 engines drive the first stage of United Launch Alliance’s Vulcan vehicle.

Efficient Propellants

LNG is higher-performing and cleaner-burning than most traditional kerosene-burning engines, thereby improving engine reusability and requiring less total fuel for the same performance.

American-Made

Full-rate production at Blue Origin’s manufacturing facilities in Kent, WA and Huntsville, AL ends America’s reliance on Russian rocket engine technology.

Two Restartable BE-3Us Power the Second Stage

High-Performing

Each of the two BE-3U engines generates 160,000 lbf (712 kN) of vacuum thrust. Coupled with higher thrust and performance, the engine’s in-space restart capabilities promote versatility for New Glenn’s second stage.

Pedigree

Leverages more than a decade of operational experience with liquid oxygen/liquid hydrogen cryogenic rocket engines, including dozens of successful New Shepard launches flown with the BE-3PM engine.

American-Made

Assembled at Blue Origin's engines manufacturing facility in Huntsville, AL.

Mission Agnostic

Optimized to operate in the vacuum of space and meet the diverse demands of our customers, including direct payload injection to high-energy orbits.

A Giant Among Rockets

At more than 320 ft (98 m) tall, New Glenn is one of the largest vehicles ever built.

Seven-Meter Fairing

Twice the volume of traditional five-meter class fairings means room for bigger constellations and larger payloads.

Upper Stage

Hydrogen-powered upper stage designed for demanding, highly energetic missions to low Earth orbit (LEO), medium Earth orbit (MEO), and geosynchronous orbit (GEO).

BE-3U

Built on New Shepard’s BE-3PM flight heritage, the BE-3U is optimized to operate in the vacuum of space. Its high thrust and high specific impulse enable New Glenn’s upper stage to accomplish a wide variety of missions.

Fins

Four actuated aerodynamic control surfaces for attitude adjustment during the first stage’s descent and landing.

Reusable First Stage

Designed for reuse and minimal maintenance in between flights.

Strakes

Wing-like to provide lift and cross-range for the reusable first stage during its descent back to Earth.

Landing Gear

Aft module houses six hydraulically-actuated legs to support and secure the first stage during landing on a moving platform.

This craft's vizzy program is useless now.

I will update a version with automate launch program and booster recover program.
