Blue Origin develops and operates the New Glenn heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle, with booster recovery, and is expanding its launch infrastructure.
Blue Origin is a US launch and space company (Bezos-owned, ~$130B valuation after its first external raise of ~$10B in July 2026) whose New Glenn has flown three times, achieving first booster reuse in April 2026, though a May 2026 static-fire explosion destroyed a booster and severely damaged its only New Glenn pad. It holds a $3.4B NASA HLS lunar-lander award (Blue Moon Mk1 and Mk2, plus two crewed LTV delivery missions at $234M each), sells BE-4 engines to ULA, has an Amazon Kuiper launch backlog, and unveiled the Quartz global ground network (August 2026). Its brutal 2026 (booster reuse achieved and pad destroyed within six weeks) leaves a return-to-flight targeted within the year; revenue is undisclosed (estimated 100-500m+).
