Jeff Bezos’ company is gearing up to launch its New Glenn rocket, kicking off a year in which the industry anticipates to grow under the Trump administration.

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin could revolutionize the space industry with its New Glenn rocket. Here's how it stacks up against SpaceX's Falcon 9.

Kent-based Blue Origin plans to launch its heavy-lift New Glenn rocket overnight. At 320 feet tall, New Glenn towers over SpaceX’s 229-foot-tall Falcon 9.

Stay tuned. Crews at NASA's Kennedy Space Center and neighboring Cape Canaveral Space Force Station are gearing up for a busy January, including SpaceX Starlink internet satellite missions, Blue Origin's maiden flight of the mighty New Glenn rocket, and the NASA-SpaceX Blue Ghost moon lander mission.

The Space Coast is in for a possible double-header. Hours after New Glenn launches on its first flight, SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9.

NASA announced Tuesday it may turn to Elon Musk's SpaceX or Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin to help reduce the soaring costs of returning Martian rocks collected by the Perseverance rover to Earth.

Blue Origin hopes New Glenn will make it safely to orbit for the inaugural test flight of a rocket that could rival those in Elon Musk's SpaceX fleet.

According to Blue Origin, the launch is now scheduled for no earlier than 1 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 12. Blue Origin has pushed the date back due to unfavorable conditions in the Atlantic Ocean. Company wants to maximize its potential to land the first-stage booster on the first try.

New Glenn will launch with the Blue Ring Pathfinder. Blue Origin said the goal with this launch is to test “Blue Ring’s core flight, ground systems, and operational capabilities as part of the Defense Innovation Unit’s (DIU) Orbital Logistics prototype effort.”

In the very early hours of January 10, Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin will attempt the inaugural launch of its massive orbital rocket New Glenn. So far, the private space company has sent up into the atmosphere its New Shepard rocket,
