On today's flight, the New Shepard crew capsule will use its reaction control system, or RCS, to spin up to approximately 11 revolutions per minute. This spin rate simulates one-sixth Earth’s gravity. 🔄 By simulating lunar gravity, customers can accelerate their learning and

Blue Ghost has "merged" onto the highway to the Moon! After a successful Trans Lunar Injection burn, our lander has left Earth's orbit and begun its 4 day transit to the Moon's orbit. We'll then spend approximately 16 days in lunar orbit before we begin Blue Ghost's descent. This

So happy to see LISTER drilling to 1 m on the Moon! We invented this technology back in 2007 and it took some time to get here. Thank you NASA for supporting this technology development and selecting us for flight. Thank you Firefly Aerospace for smooth flight and landing!

Blue Ghost turns red! Our lander downlinked more imagery from the Moon captured around 2:30 am CDT during the totality of the solar eclipse last night. These images - rapidly captured by our top deck camera with different exposure settings - were stitched together in a quick

These dots are gas giant exoplanets captured by Webb's camera - the clearest infrared look we've gotten yet! Webb also detected carbon dioxide and heavy elements in the planets - evidence they may have formed in the same way as Jupiter and Saturn. go.nasa.gov/4iAM9Mt

On the road again! We’re pumped to have Blue Origin's Honeybee Robotics hitch another ride to the Moon on Blue Ghost Mission 3. This time we'll bring their rover to help explore the mysteries of the Gruithuisen Domes. Learn more here: fireflyspace.com/news/firefly-a…

Our Honeybee Robotics rover will carry NASA’s Lunar-VISE investigation as part of Firefly Aerospace’s mission. It can excavate lunar soil by independently turning its wheels, helping explore the challenging Gruithuisen Domes terrain. The rover is equipped with actuated radiator

With the release of Russ Vought's NASA budget-slashing proposal and the ousting of Jared Isaacman, the last day has been the largest shift in U.S. space policy in a generation. Many people in government, industry, and the scientific community are gravely concerned about the

Just. Wow. As we went over Mexico and the U.S. this morning, I caught this sprite. Sprites are TLEs or Transient Luminous Events, that happen above the clouds and are triggered by intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below. We have a great view above the clouds, so
