Watch: Blue Origin New Glenn rocket explodes on Cape Canaveral launch pad during test

“We experienced an anomaly during today’s hotfire test. All personnel have been accounted for. We will provide updates as we learn more,” Blue Origin posted on X.

Video captured by Spaceflightnow.com and posted to X showed the rocket stage standing vertical on the pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s Launch Complex 36 become engulfed in flames. The fireball expands out and covers the entire launch pad as the fuselage of the rocket can be seen crumbling into the flames.

Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos added, “It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it. Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It’s worth it.”

SpaceX founder Elon Musk, a Blue Origin competitor, weighed in as well.

“Sorry to see this, I hope you recover quickly,” he posted on X.

The explosion occurred around 9 p.m.
