BLUE ORIGIN IS GETTING SERIOUS ABOUT DEVELOPING A HUMAN SPACECRAFT

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Blue Origin's new chief executive Dave Limp is working to instill a more productive culture at the firm. The company plans to launch its own heavy-lift rocket later this year, possibly as soon as August. It has been developing hardware to fly on the heavy-lift rocket, including a transfer vehicle for ferrying satellites into precise orbits, and working on a private space station called Orbital Reef. Blue Origin is now hiring staff to develop a commercial space transportation system for humans.
