The NS-23 launch was schedule for August 31st, and then on September 1st, both times, the launch had to be scrubbed to weather. Today’s launch took place at 7:57 PM (IST) at Blue Origin’s Corn Ranch property near Van Horn, Texas. Previously the time to launch this mission was 7 o’clock. Shortly after launch, the focus shifted to the ‘New Shepard Capsule’, which was carrying 36 science experiments as payloads.
Just over one minute into the flight, the rocket was seen in flames before separating from the capsule and flying out of the frame.
Jeff Bezos is an industrialist, whose company Blue Origin launched this rocket on Monday. However, it failed. According to the information, no astronaut was being sent through this rocket. It was only for scientific research. This rocket was launched from West Texas. Within a minute of the flight, yellow flames were visible around the single-engine below. Immediately after this, the emergency system of the capsule was activated and after several minutes it landed in the distant desert.
