About
Blue Origin is an aerospace company that focuses on lowering the cost of spaceflight and helping to explore the solar system. Blue Origin’s engines are designed, developed and manufactured in the United States. They provide great control with a precisely timed start, high-power thrust for launch, deep throttling for landing, and stop and restart capabilities. Since our first, simple, single-propellant engine – the BE-1 – we’ve built and tested multiple generations for suborbital and orbital spaceflight.
Blue Origin is an aerospace manufacturer that designs and produces rocket engines and spacecraft for suborbital and orbital missions. The company serves government agencies and commercial clients seeking access to space. Its primary products include the New Shepard vehicle and the New Glenn launch system.
