The FAA grounds Blue Origin New Glenn rocket after failure to put payload in orbit
SMRTR summary
The FAA grounded Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket after it failed to deliver its payload to the correct orbit during Sunday's launch from Cape Canaveral. The rocket was supposed to place a satellite into a 285-mile orbit but only reached 95 miles, making the orbit unsustainable. This marks the second grounding for New Glenn in just three missions, potentially delaying Blue Origin's planned launch of Amazon's broadband satellites later this year.
