Blue Origin is key to Amazon's ability to compete with SpaceX Starlink. Jeff Bezos has finally done it. He's finally reached space with an honest-to-goodness orbital-class rocket. Ten years ago, Bezos ignited a feud with SpaceX founder Elon Musk when his Blue Origin rocket company launched a suborbital New Shepard rocket to the edge of space and then landed it back on Earth.

John Oberst, head of Alaska Aerospace, went on the "Today" show to discuss what is being described as a “traffic jam” at the country’s spaceports.

Just past 2 a.m. Eastern time on Jan. 16, 2025, a new rocket blasted off from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. By reaching orbit, Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket launch has marked a milestone for a commercial space company that has big ambitions.

In what can only be seen as a major positive for the Space Coast, the county's own freshman congressman, Mike Haridopolos, has been tapped to chair the congressional Subcommittee on Space and Aeronautics.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – SpaceX on Wednesday will launch a military communications satellite from Florida’s Space Coast. A Falcon 9 rocket will launch Hisdesat’s SpainSat NG I mission from Launch Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center.

Headliners including Jane Goodall, Brian May, Pablo Álvarez, Glenn Hughes, Jorge Drexler, and many more will celebrate science this April.

The best Netflix original movies now include Back in Action, Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever, The Six Triple Eight, Carry-On, and The Piano Lesson.

Renowned for its rocket launches, bioluminescence and stunning beaches, the Space Coast attracts some famous visitors. More are likely to come as Brevard was just named among the top 10 places to visit in North America and the Caribbean in 2025 by Conde Nast Traveler.

SpaceX is preparing to send its next round of Starlink satellites into lower Earth orbit with a launch scheduled for Monday afternoon at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, officials said.

SpaceX launched a new round of Starlink satellites into lower Earth orbit on its 11th launch of 2025, setting it on pace to break another one-year launch record.

One of the key questions about Blue Origin is whether it will push toward full reusability with New Glenn. In 2021, Ars first reported on an effort codenamed "Project Jarvis" to develop a stainless steel upper stage that could be reused. The company even built a test tank, although the effort was eventually shelved.

Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin joined the billionaire’s space race in earnest when its New Glenn rocket roared from a launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center in the early morning hours of Jan. 16. The second stage with the Blue Ring payload successfully reached orbit. However, an attempt to land the first stage on a drone ship failed.
