Hello, my fellow tech enthusiasts! Today, we have some exciting news from Blue Origin. After a long hiatus, the company is gearing up for its first crewed launch since 2022.
It’s been quite a while since Blue Origin’s last crewed flight, but the wait is finally over. The launch window for this mission begins at 6:30AM PT / 9:30AM ET, with the live stream starting 40 minutes ahead of time on the company’s website.
For those who prefer watching on YouTube, Blue Origin typically streams its launches live on its channel. So, you can tune in to catch all the action of the NS-25 mission tomorrow.
Onboard this historic flight will be six passengers, including the legendary 90-year-old Ed Dwight, America’s first Black astronaut candidate who has never been to space before. The other passengers are Mason Angel, Sylvain Chiron, Kenneth L. Hess, Carol Schaller, and Gopi Thotakura.
After a setback in 2022 due to a rocket booster issue, Blue Origin took the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of its crew and passengers. The company has since completed corrective actions mandated by the FAA and successfully launched science payloads into space in December.
