Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket exploded on Thursday night during a hotfire test on the launch pad, lighting up the skies around the launch site in Cape Canaveral, Florida. In a post on X, Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos said that all personnel had been accounted for. “It’s too early to know the root cause…
