Perhaps the Space Coast will get a new big rocket player this year after all, as Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin has rolled its heavy-lift New Glenn rocket to the launch pad at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station where it went vertical for the first time.
The rocket on the pad is the next step for the company’s years-long efforts to get to its first launch, which could be as early as September, according to the Space Force launch manifest.
Standing at more than 320 feet, the company upended the rocket late Wednesday after migrating from its hangar at Canaveral’s Launch Complex 36.
