With the two BE-4 engines working flawlessly on the first Vulcan launch I now look forward more excitedly to the first New Glenn (Blue Glenn lol) launch. Thank you very much for spotting this first stage!
They gonna finally get that (4th-o-july) skyrocket engine lit this time? Oh wth, just having some foolish fun, hey good luck BO, I'LL keep my fingers crossed, seriously I hope everything goes well.
The Blue Origin subreddit has a lot of actual employees who comment on things, and it's been confirmed that the booster here is real flight hardware with the non-flight interstage forward module section. The booster will serve a similar pathfinder role that the Vulcan Centaur PTT did back in 2021.
Also missed here in this video is that the Lex Friedman photo shows another forward module, but unlike the non-flight version, there's clearly insulation on it, and it actually has fins installed on it. There is also another midbody seen in the photo, but at the time it was taken over a month ago, it was yet to have any insulation panels, propulsion lines, or electrical lines installed. And this fits in well with what the Wall Street Journal article stated about four boosters in the work.
I had no idea about the Blue Origin subreddit. Thanks.
@@uku4171 check it out, great subreddit
So should be then assume New Glenn is 2-3 years from an orbital flight? Probably not, but I was wondering whether it could be this year.
@@J7Handle it will fly this year
There's other details he missed. The test article interstage has clear attach points on it for the 2nd stage to be bolted on to. If you look at the very high-res close ups inside the interstage, you can see that there are pneumatic hydraulic mechanisms for stage separation. It's likely that this module was used to test the structure of the interstage and then the separation and other systems.
Massive heads up! David Limp, the new Blue Origin CEO has released photos of the New Glenn booster in the hanger alongside.... a full up 2nd stage equipped with 2 BE-3Us!!!!!
Damn! Way to go Blue! Three big wins in three days!
Go Blue
I dont think people realised how lucky we r and what a time to be alive it is.. We experience the first rapid reusable rocket capable of landing itself on a drone ship.. the development of Moon n Mars lander, several company attempting for making fully Reusable rockets, Moon landing on the way. Uprising of Small rocket companies like rocket lab, relativity etc. Such exciting times for Space Enthuasist. The Era of Rocket landing and reusing like Airplanes has begun.
It has not begun, it is continuing
Finally!!! Let the new Space Race begin!!!!
When?
Notification squad assemble!
The thing that worries me the most is the almost unavoidable comparison to SpaceX. It took them more than two years from the first fully completed booster to the first flight. And while it is hard to find good data on other rockets, it's probably not too far off with ground testing of both booster and ground systems. We also have yet to see a fully assembled second stage of New Glenn. So while they are obviously making good progress, I don't think the first flight is as close as one might hope.
Ikr.. even when done which it is far from.. the gap between static fire n launch is like months
First flight is this year. People said BE-4 can’t succeed on first flight because raptor blew up many times. Yet BE-4 succeeded in flying an orbital mission which raptor has not yet done.. blue do engineering different than SpaceX, New Glenn will succeed on first launch
@@iamjwns6277 "Yet BE-4 succeeded in flying an orbital mission which raptor has not yet done." Nonsense. The 33 Raptors on B9 successfully boosted their second stage to nominal stage sep. (and beyond)
What you mean it’s a cylinder….like all rockets 😂😂😂
@@proesterchenThat was not a successful orbital launch.
holy MOLY this is not what i expected to wake up to
but you BET im rarely this excited
This is exciting, great overall video!
WOOO! Love seeing this. Thanks again for the coverage!
The "Freedom" name in the interstage is already being applied to the booster as a whole.
It's also historically the name of Alan Shepard's Mercury capsule "Freedom 7" which he rode on a suborbital flight, MR-3, the first manned Mercury mission. So, if it follows to form, the next booster and interstage will either being Liberty Bell or Friendship.
@@martinr1834 Nope.
Really hope we get a lot of Blue Origin action this year it would be great to see them flying New Glenn. Maybe see some progress towards reef.
Thanks for the update!
Great analysis thanks Adrian. I really appreciate that you gave the measurements in metric, for once I understood the size instead of missing something else while trying to work out the conversions.
As a fellow metric user.. I have got to say.. stop it. During almost all NFS broadcasts and episodes metric is used.. pay a bit more attention if this is actually "for once" you actually did.
@@lijftogt NSF team gives metric and its awesome NASA gives feet and its annoying. Just to clarify.
@@corrinastanley125 Blue Origin are the silly rocket people that insist on imperial units.
Most USA women know they want 6 foot+ but have no clue to how many meters they wanta
@3:40. Those rings are NOT tank sections. Those are panels of insulation that cover the actual aluminum alloy tanks. If you look carefully at the factory photos of other midbody tanks, they have actual standoff attach points for the panels on them. On the "bottom" of the midbody from six weeks ago and now, you can see where a line of this insulation is left off down the length of the tanks.
Impressive analysis work.
i wish them luck, spacex needs some competition
@@martinr1834 I disagree
oh god that booster is such a monster... megalomaniac inside me is stoked
Can't wait to see it fly.
LOVE the background music!! I love these types of videos and hopefully as space becomes more funded and more contracts to the moon and LEO, the more vids we will see, ones like these!
Easily my second most looked forward to rocket.
I love your videos thank you
Looking forward to “Blue Glenn’s” first launch. Thanks Adrian, Harry, Julia, Max, SCL, Ryan C., and KMR.
Exactly you should be looking forward and not up because it's about that likely to land on some house opposed to going to space...
Will Jeff make it look absurdly phallic, like their other rocket and the Amazon logo? I guess we have to wait and see. 😮
@@RobertCraft-re5sfWe can only hope.
@@RobertCraft-re5sfthe Amazon logo? You mean an arrow?
@@justas7463Your hate is showing.
I wonder how it will handle the supersonic shock waves during assent and later descent. That aft section ads a level of complexity to the aerodynamic shape of the booster stage.
I think that NG will fly this year. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
It will!
I'm no rocket engineer, but I can respect the person that shrink-wrapped that aft section (I know it was probably machines, but still..).
We all know wraptor engines are awesome. Looks like its ready to go!
I can't believe how blue origin is making new Glenn 😮
Is there going to be a closer view of Blue Origin on LC 36 at a later date? Cape Canaveral Lighthouse is 4,490 feet from LC 36.
Hopefully BO buys ULA since ULA already has a large manufacturing infrastructure and years of experience already in place
Very nice😍😍
✨✨Good best of luck ✨✨👍
A New Glenn first stage in the wild? NO WAY!
thanks
they brought it in the front of the hanger. building the payload, loader.......this rocket is huge!! all stages in the building
Nice!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Impressively detailed analysis NSF team. It's good to get familiar with Blue Origin hardware as far in advance as possible. I still think we're at least 18 months away from the debut launch of New Glenn though.
Launch this year
18 months? Why? Bezos is confident that they'll launch this year.
@@uku4171 Bezos was confident they would launch years ago too
From Blue Origin's LinkedIn Page:
"The first and second stages of New Glenn’s test vehicle mate for the first time, enabling us to exercise our tooling and stage interfaces in preparation for our first launch later this year".
There's a great picture but I can't get it to post on here.
Danke NSF !🙏
If you can't fly your way to space by your way to space
how about a video of spacex lc 39a and factory
IDK if NG is gonna fly in '24... It's already January. Seriously though. Best wishes to BO. I do hope this is the year they figure out how to step it up a notch or two.
Er hat sich einen Bart zugelegt ^^
Blue Origin reminds me of NASA. They both tip toe to success, while SpaceX simply blows stuff up until they get it right. There is something to be said for being careful, but frankly; SpaceX is way more fun to watch. And they get results much faster their way.
Plus, they ramp up quickly to manufacture rockets efficiently and at lower cost.
I think the rapid iteration also allows for much more advanced system development constantly pushing for new improved and cutting edge vehicles. Tip toe development is always going to be moving forward in tiny increments. This is why the Falcon 9 is now the overwhelmingly dominant launch system in the world .
What's the "glenn" stands for?
The "glenn"(sic) stands for the astronaut John Glenn.
He was the third American in space, and the first American to orbit the Earth, circling it three times in 1962. If you are into space, how come you didn't know that or be bothered to look it up so that people don't realise you are a complete twat?
But, will it fly in this decade?
Yes
Hehe😈it's getting good
Great, im sure in the next 5 years we will see it fly. 🎉
Looks like part of melons hyperloop..
Great info but the host is hard to understand.
"Nearly complete" or just a test tank with some fancy hold-down interfaces?
It is flight hardware. It will fly this year. First they will do a wet dress rehearsal
@@iamjwns6277 there is no gaurantee it will fly this year. after testing, they will need finish stage 1 construction, prepare the second stage and payload section, and then test full stack. I would love to see it fly this year, but I think next year is much more likely (especially given that blue origin likes to go slow and carefully.)
I’m in equal parts.... excited to see this launch.... and ... have been waiting since the mid 2000’s and don’t care anymore
@@martinr1834 you might be waiting till 2050 at this rate hahahaha
Hope is succes with single/3/5 engine, elon musk made mistake like N1 SOVIET moon rocket so many engine
Fly this year? I'll believe it when I see it.
Good luck to New Glen. This would be a huge boost to the US Space program. However, based on past performance, I have my doubts New Glen will even attempt to launch this year...hope I am wrong but Blue Origin to date has not really done much to inspire confidence. They have produces a bunch of cool pics, vids and ship mock up but nothing into space (what I mean by that is an actual rocket not just engines). i was a HUGE Blue fan years ago, but they have been highly disappointing to date.
Based on reports from former employees, Blue's design philosophy is to perfect each step, before moving to the next. Based on New Shepard, they make good hardware, eventually. The BE-4 engines debut on Vulcan Centaur are promising as well. So it is likely the New Glenn will be a good rocket, eventually.
I’m telling ya. Blue should buy stoke and have stoke build new Glenn a fully reusable upper stage. Give stoke a ton of money! They kicka**!
Stoke is BO's child, its founded by former spacex and bo engineers
First
Female booster, fascinating.
😂😂💀💀💀💀 *
It's real; but is it spectacular?!😮😂
First view haha.
Ready? No more cartoons? Isn't she afraid of getting dusty?
"space"
So basically, its a mockup.
some real dopes commenting on things they cannot understand in this comment section.
I doubts New Glen will attempt to launch this year.
Really no sense in guessing only time will tell. 🙉 🙈🙊
Is it made of cardboard?
Jeff Bezos say: "No images 4U!".
This is a common theme for UA-camrs who compete with Amazon with their own merch store. 🤣
Can't wait to see how many leaks this one has....😐
Launch in 2026-2028.... Gotta stick with boeing business model
my interest just dropped to Zero with the "not for flight" marquee
it is the interstage that is non flight. everything else is. and a built out interstage already exists as well as the second stage that is already in the pad 36 hanger. The fairing is also in hanger. we will see individual stages and then integrated vehicle on pad before much longer.
@@eichelbergergary thanks for the precision
Meh
This is larping
Love the nsf videos, watch them a lot with my old man. This video kinda sucked tho. U kept showing a lot of cool stuff and then quickly cut back to your face.(not saying anything is wrong with your face) Made it hard to see what you are talking about. U jumped scared my old man a few times with those quck cuts. He's expecting a shot of the rocket but by the time his eyes focus all he sees is you.
Pause!
Bezos wants to be Elon sooooo bad. It's kinda sad. 😂
The sith rocket.
I'm betting that Blue is about to reach a deal to buy ULA then bye bye that crazy Elon
Not a chance this thing flies in 2024 😂
Maybe now they can make it to space instead of being Disney's highest paid shortest ride in the world!!!
It's way behind SpaceX SN1. SpaceX is now in the 30's, so NewGlen still has a lot of revisions to go through before they catch up to 30 and are ready to fly.
Thats not how it works AT ALL.
@@_mikolaj_ What are you talking about? It took SpaceX about 30 iterations to get something to fly. Why would New Glenn be any different?
@@ronwatkins5775 because starship is using outdated development method from the 60s?
Have you ever noticed that majority of rocket developments get their rocket rigth on first on second time? Vulcan and SLS the closest examples for instance.
@@ronwatkins5775 To be fair, lots of those 30 numbers were skipped. Starhopper (4), SN5, SN6, SN8, SN9, SN10, SN11, SN15, S24, and S25 have all flown. So with Starhopper's 4 flights (2 were tethered), that is 13 flights total.
@@ronwatkins5775 I mean, you could ask how many iterations it took Vulcan to fly...
The majority of your viewers are most likely in USA and WE DO NOT USE THE METRIC SYSTEM!!!!!!! more than half your viewers have no idea the size of anything you speak of......Probably wise to tailor your content to your majority viewers
Metric is not that hard to learn. Google is easily accessible to translate metric to imperial units. And I'm American, who grew up with imperial units.
Long time viewer,
First time complainer.
Guys, please talk normally, me personally, don't want to hear this "excited fake reporter talk" your normal voices are more than adequate.... To be honest, it's putting me off these videos. I may be the only one???
@@martinr1834 Fair comment & I know, it's not just Adrian, the other guys do it too. I just don't want them turning into WAI who I stopped watching long ago.
This rocket 🚀 probably will never fly now that Jeff has purchased ULA, as of 1/7/24.
Huh
Source for this? I heard BO was one of the three companies interested in ULA, but I've not heard that a sale has actually gone through.
Rubbish. New Glenn is flying this year and ULA has not been bought
It might fly this year, pending delays.
You look like you use reddit daily
It's a plastic fake.
Probably would cost more to manufacture a plastic fake than the real thing with how it looks.
You're a plastic fake!
Besos hobby is a joke 😎
Hopefully BO buys ULA since ULA already has a large manufacturing infrastructure and years of experience already in place
