JEFF BEZOS'S NEW GLENN ROCKET LAUNCH CANCELED AFTER HOURS OF DELAYS
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket launch at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida was called off this morning after hours of delays. As tall as a 32-story building, the rocket was set to launch on January 10, but the launch was postponed due to choppy seas in the Atlantic Ocean where the booster is supposed to land. New Glenn is designed to carry larger satellites and other payloads than other rockets in operation today. Its success could inject competition into the rocket business, which is currently dominated by one company - SpaceX.
