It's Embarrassing! What SpaceX just did humiliated Blue Origin after New Glenn's Trouble...

[@billotto602]

Blue Origin is easy to keep an eye on. It never leaves the pad !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@kevinbissett293]

Well said.

[@lynardskynard8443]

Money isn't everything, you have to have a leader with a vision and knowledge and people behind him with brains, dedication and trust in the leader!

[@techmap9]

Exactly! Bezos' ego is too big to know what is right or wrong

[@stevej7139]

Too bad Falcon9 will be phased out once starship is flying missions, what will BO do to compete ?

[@techmap9]

That seems impossible!

[@stevej7139]

@@techmap9 How so? Elon has stated that with Starship full reusability that Falcon9 will be obsolete, the cost per pound to orbit with starship will be a fraction of the cost of a Falcon9 so it would be a waste of money to keep flying Falcon9.

I thought that the cupola on "inspiration 4" was the largest window in space not "new Shepard" windows!?

Bezo's has the resources. What he lacks is the work force and sheer will to see it through. His slow pace will only cause the gap between SpaceX and Blue Origin to grow. Blue Origin will never be a serious competitor to SpaceX, unless there's a paradigm shift in output. SpaceX will launch dozens of rockets to Blues one, there's no comparison.

[@techmap9]

Yes, and Bezos' ego is too big

[@Rust2510-w5f]

they have the same mindset as microsoft and disney just throw money at it and it will all workout somehow

[@stevensmith797]

when your playing with the unknown , untested , that exactly what you have to do , throw money at it lol , because in the end , it is rocket science

[@dongeiger8393]

How can it rival SpaceX. Bo has done nothing while spacex is going to the moon ! More Bo bull manure!

Somebody watching??💜💙💜💙

[@techmap9]

A lot ❤️

[@BRO0O0O0DER]

Yes

Hydrogen propellant is obviously difficult relative to methane. This, coupled with Musk's Mars target, is key to the success of SpaceX. SpaceX is now at least 3 generations ahead in rocket engine development. It's true that hydrogen is theoretically a more efficient propellant (so long as you dont blow out your engines with every launch). Besos' limited vision is likely to place his company's product in a niche due to the limited practical utility/reusability of his engines.

Good Morning my Friend. All Bezos is, Talk. So tell me again what Blue Origin has done. Did I miss something. Like always, Bezos talks like he's leading the back. As long as he stays on the ground. Just Maybe it won't be as embarrassing as Starliner. Maybe. Let's get this New Glenn off of the ground and prove itself before we even begin to talk about putting a multi-billion dollar satellite on top of it. Great update my Friend. Have a Great Day.

Jeffo's Lawsuitpaloosa is about to start. One will be because Jeffo's super duper Uber yatch isn't big enough, and anything that makes Jeffo sad is a lawsuit. Another will be that 90 percent of SpaceX's enganeers have to go to work for Jeffo, and 75 percent of Starlink has to be given to Jeffo because he wants them. Now, let's move on to the Falcons and Super Heavy, Jeffo wants them also.

[@stephensfarms7165]

All I hear and see is just talk about what it can do, we’ll do something, launch it. Fix the problems later. It’s taking too long, and you might lose payloads if you don’t launch soon.

[@samsung6091]

Not at all nowhere close, NASA has a better chance of being closer to SpaceX then blue origin

[@uddek]

I'm a space fan first, SpaceX fan second. I get mocking BO, but they're a traditional aerospace company going at traditional aerospace company speed. SpaceX is an anomaly. I want BO to be successful in their way at their pace, and there's no reason why they can't be. SpaceX will undoubtedly be our workhorse and our bleeding edge space tech company, but there's still so much more BO and the other startups can do to help move humanity off earth. An explosion over NewGlenn in the thumbnail image is a bit much.

Bezos' ego is too big

New Sheppard is a whole failure. Why does it not progress? Only to be a carnival ride is a waste. Its a shame. He has an almost space worthy rocket. Why not evolve it more?

[@stevensmith797]

never had the ythrust for more than what it does , cant give it more because of its size , only answer was something totaly new , hence new glen , mean time get what they can from sheppard

[@XCX237]

@stevensmith797 I still think they could have pushed new Sheppard further. But Blu is lazy 🤔

[@stevensmith797]

@@XCX237 why would they ? , it was obsolete the moment falcon 9 hit the pad , they were always going to need some far bigger and reusable to even get close to compete , so they made some money , gatherd data of flight and controls untill glen is ready
