Fog, freezing drizzle and sno couldn’t keep this intrepid group from completing the Annual #yycbike @bromptonleague.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy New Year Day ride to #bluering Wandering Light. Thanks to @brettbergie.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy for organizing and sorry you missed the ride - get well soon!
Blue Origin advances Blue Ring spacecraft toward 2026 national security mission
NASA funds studies focusing on orbital transfer vehicles
Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space venture is among six companies that will be producing studies for NASA looking at low-cost ways to use orbital transfer vehicles to deliver spacecraft to hard-to-reach orbits for the space agency.
The awards will support nine studies in all, with a maximum total val

Blue Origin sets the date for New Glenn’s orbital debut
Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space venture says it’s targeting the first-ever launch of its orbital-class New Glenn rocket for no earlier than the night of Jan. 9-10.
Liftoff is due to take place at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s Launch Complex 36 in Florida. The three-hour l

(low earth orbit is fixing to get a lot more crowded)
#BlueOrigin has received #FAA approval for the first flight, and the payload will include equipment related to #BlueRing, a Blue Origin program that will provide maneuverable spacecraft to the #USDoD
Upcoming #NewGlenn launches are expected to carry payloads for NASA, various telecommunications providers, and will also launch Amazon’s planned Project Kuiper, a mega-constellation competitor to #SpaceX #Starlink.
Blue Origin and NASA shift New Glenn launch plans
NASA is delaying the launch of its ESCAPADE probes to Mars, which means plans for the debut of Blue Origin’s heavy-lift New Glenn rocket will change as well.
New Glenn was previously due to send the twin ESCAPADE spacecraft to Mars as early as next month, but after a review of launch

Starlink on Mars? NASA is paying SpaceX to look into it
NASA has given the go-ahead for SpaceX to work out a plan to adapt its Starlink broadband internet satellites for use in a Martian communication network.
The idea is

Companies are pitching concepts for missions to visit an asteroid that will make a close approach to Earth in five years. The asteroid Apophis will pass closer to the Earth than the GEO satellite belt in April 2029, but with no risk of impact, and scientists are eager to send spacecraft to study Apophis both before and after the flyby. At a workshop this week, Blue Origin said it is offering its Blue Ring spacecraft for an Apophis mission, with room for up to 13 instruments or deployable spacecraft.
