Show Notes

A decade in the making, standing at 32-stories tall and packing more than twice the thrust of SpaceX’s Falcon 9, Blue Origin’s heavy lift rocket will be launching uncrewed from Florida’s space coast with a launch window opening at 1 ET. The mission is ambitious: New Glenn will fly another company creation - a prototype of the blue ring space tug - to orbit and designed to be partially reusable. On the eve of the launch, Blue Origin CEO Dave Limp talks to Morgan Brennan about what’s at stake, how he sees Competition evolving with market dominating rival SpaceX , and how the Bezos’ funded company is becoming a self-sustaining business.
