Blue Origin\u2019s NS-23 uncrewed flight<\/a> ended abruptly on Saturday morning after the spaceflight company aborted the mission due to an issue with the New Shepard rocket\u2019s booster. The failure happened just as the rocket reached max Q, or the moment when it reaches maximum dynamic pressure.<\/p>\n

Blue Origin has yet to confirm what went wrong but said on Twitter<\/a> that it\u2019s \u201cresponding to an issue this morning at our Launch Site One location in West Texas\u201d and added that \u201cthe capsule escape system functioned as designed.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019re responding to an issue this morning at our Launch Site One location in West Texas. This was a payload mission with no astronauts on board. The capsule escape system functioned as designed. More information to come as it is available.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Blue Origin (@blueorigin) September 12, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

The rocket took off at around 10:26AM ET from Blue Origin\u2019s West Texas site, with the capsule carrying 36 payloads containing scientific research equipment. Shortly into the flight (at around 1:21:49<\/a> in the livestream), you can see the moment Blue Origin triggers the escape system.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt appears we have experienced an anomaly with today\u2019s flight,\u201d the commentator says during the livestream. \u201cThis was unplanned and we don’t have any details yet. But our crew capsule was able to escape successfully, we\u2019ll follow its progress through landing. As you can see, the drogues have deployed, and the mains are going to be pulled out next.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the process, the capsule remains intact and deploys chutes before it begins its journey back down to Earth. As noted by Ars Technica<\/em> senior space editor Eric Berger<\/a>, if there were people on board, \u201cthey would have felt a serious jolt\u201d but likely would \u201chave been safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blue Origin is the spaceflight company founded by Amazon founder and former CEO Jeff Bezos and that recently took a group of people to the edge of space in June<\/a>, which marked its fifth crewed mission.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
