GS1-SN001 So You're Telling Me There's a Chance[2] |
Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Ring Pathfinder[3] | Unknown | MEO | Blue Origin | Success | Failure (Jacklyn) |
| Maiden/demonstration flight of New Glenn, carrying a prototype Blue Ring spacecraft. First National Security Space Launch demonstration flight for New Glenn.[4] The January 13 launch was scrubbed due to problems with the rocket. The second stage made it to orbit, but the first stage was lost and failed to land.[5] | |||||||||

GS1-SN002-1 Never Tell Me The Odds[6] |
Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | ESCAPADE (2 spacecraft) and a payload from Viasat | 1,070 kg (2,360 lb) | Sun-Earth L2 to Areocentric | NASA | Success | Success (Jacklyn) |
| Second National Security Space Launch demonstration flight for New Glenn, carrying the ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission for NASA as part of their low-cost SIMPLEx program, aiming to investigate Mars' magnetosphere and a technology demonstration payload from Viasat. New Glenn deployed two spacecraft on a direct interplanetary trajectory. NASA paid Blue Origin about $20 million for the launch.[7] Delayed from October 13, 2024; it was originally intended to be launched on the debut flight of New Glenn.[4] A launch attempt on November 9, 2025 was scrubbed due to weather conditions, with a future launch date scheduled for November 12.[8] This was delayed a day further due to a solar storm.[9] First successful first stage landing for New Glenn.[10] | |||||||||
Future launches
[edit | edit source]Launches are expected to take place "no earlier than" (NET) the listed date.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| January 2026[11] | GS1-SN002-2 Never Tell Me The Odds[12] |
Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Moon Pathfinder Mission 1 | 21,715 kg (47,873 lb)[13] | TLI | NASA (CLPS) |
| Will carry a prototype Blue Moon Mark 1 lander, planned to make a landing on the Moon. During the mission Blue Moon will carry a payload called Stereo Cameras for Lunar Plume Surface Studies (SCALPSS), as part of a task order from NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program, awarded in July 2024.[14][15][16] | ||||||
| Early 2026[11] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Elytra Mission 1 and others[17] | Unknown | LEO | NRO & others |
| NRO Responsive Space Mission, carrying Firefly's Elytra orbital transfer vehicle and Xtenti's FANTM-RiDE payload dispenser. Originally planned to launch on Firefly Alpha from SLC-2W at Vandenberg, but was moved to New Glenn following the failure of "Message in a Booster" in April 2025.[18][19] | ||||||
| Mid 2026[11] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | LeoSat × 49[20] | 27,979 kg (61,683 lb)[21] | LEO | Amazon (Amazon Leo) |
| First launch of Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) satellites on New Glenn to expand LEO internet constellation. Amazon Leo was also founded by Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos; however, the two companies are not directly connected. | ||||||
| 2026[22] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Block 2 Bluebird x 8[22] | 33,680 kg (74,250 lb)[23] | LEO | AST SpaceMobile |
| First launch of AST SpaceMobile Block 2 Bluebird satellites on New Glenn to expand cellular broadband satellite constellation. Multi-launch contract was signed in November 2024.[24] | ||||||
| Late 2027[25] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Moon Pathfinder Mission 2 | Unknown | TLI | NASA (CLPS) |
| Will carry the VIPER rover,[26] which was previously cancelled in 2024.[27] | ||||||
| 2028[28] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Unknown | Unknown | Unknown | U.S. Space Force |
| Blue Origin, as the Requirement 3 provider is projected to be awarded seven NSSL Phase 3 Lane 2 missions starting in Order Year 2.[29] | ||||||
| 2030[30] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Moon Mark 2 Lander | Unknown | LEO[31] | NASA (Artemis)[32] |
| Sustaining HLS uncrewed lunar demo for Artemis V. | ||||||
| 2030[30] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Moon Mark 2 Lander | Unknown | LEO[31] | NASA (Artemis)[32] |
| Sustaining HLS crewed lunar demo for Artemis V. | ||||||
| 2033[33] | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Blue Moon Mark 2 Lander | Unknown | Unknown | NASA (Artemis) |
| The agency expects Blue Origin to deliver a lunar surface habitat no earlier than fiscal year 2033 using a cargo version of its crewed human lander.[33] | ||||||
| TBD | Unknown | Cape Canaveral, LC‑36 | Unknown | Unknown | Unknown | Eutelsat[34] |
| Eutelsat now says it has no specific launch date slated for New Glenn, stating: “New Glenn is part of our portfolio of launch options and will be activated based on our future needs taking into consideration industry conditions at the time. Our launch contract with Blue Origin for a Eutelsat unspecified satellite on a New Glenn rocket is still current. It will help to diversify options for access to space.”[35] | ||||||
