Blue Origin’s New Shepard Space Vehicle


Historic Rocket Landing for Blue Origin’s New Shepard space vehicle, successfully flew to space reaching its planned test altitude of 329,839 feet (100.5 kilometers) before executing a historic landing back at the launch site in West Texas. So soon you'll be able to leave Earth and experience what so few know.

From Blue Origin: OUR SPACEFLIGHT EXPERIENCE OFFERS ASPIRING ASTRONAUTS A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO HELP HUMANITY GET THERE



Following a thrilling launch, you’ll soar over 100 km above Earth—beyond the internationally recognized edge of space. You’ll help extend the legacy of space explorers who have come before you while pioneering access to the space frontier for all. 

Sitting atop a 60-foot-tall rocket in a capsule designed for six people, you’ll feel the engine ignite and rumble under you as you climb through the atmosphere. Accelerating at more than 3 Gs to faster than Mach 3, you will count yourself as one of the few who has gone these speeds and crossed into space. 

As the main engine cuts off, your capsule will separate from its booster and perfect stillness will surround you, you're weightless a life changing experience.
