Updates Blue Origin New Shepard News and Updates

Vehicle issue that would take longer to solve than the launch window remaining. No new launch date yet.
 
Official stream for later today
 
The day I can't watch is the day it works... 😒

Really cheap video quality. (n)

Still, now they have 2 vehicles for humans, so flight rate should increase.
 

The payloads will experience at least two minutes of lunar gravity forces, a first for New Shepard and made possible in part through support from NASA.

The New Shepard crew capsule is using its Reaction Control System (RCS) to spin up to approximately 11 revolutions per minute. This spin rate simulates one-sixth Earth gravity at the midpoint of the crew capsule lockers. In simulated lunar gravity, customers can accelerate their learning and technology readiness for lunar payloads at much lower cost. Previously, the Moon’s gravity could only be simulated a few seconds at a time via centrifuge drop tower or for ~20 seconds aboard parabolic flights.
 
Holding...
(can't watch more 😞)
