Blue Origin

“To return to flight this year, we're not rebuilding the same pad. We're going straight to a horizontal vertical hybrid con ops. We are, we had already been developing for our nine X four new Glenn launch vehicle using existing infrastructure, skipping a new tr…”

“Even Amazon is going to have to become an even bigger customer because they're not, you know, Blue Origins, you know”

“Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket just blew up at LC, landing LC-thirty-six while attempting to static fire ahead of NG-four.”

“Even our second best rocket proprietor is better than everyone else in around the globe.”

“The explosion caused extreme structural damage to its only functional launch pad, while Blue Origin has successfully reached base a number of times with other vehicles. New Glenn has had just one successful flight out of three attempted tries.”

“Blue Origin, which is his space company, recently submitted plans to the FCC to send 51,600 data center satellites into low Earth orbit as part of an initiative dubbed Project Sunrise.”

“Now, both SpaceX and Blue had to do uncrewed tests of their vehicle. It was already part of the plan. So they were planning to launch these you know, these spacecraft in in twenty-twenty-seven.”

“So last year, Blue Origin landed their heavy rocket, and so now there's actual, there's actually two American companies. And so that means real pricing pressure, which is like very, very good.”

“Elon putting in a hundred million dollars bought early runway, but Bezos poured much more into Blue Origin, and legacy primes Had multiples of this amount.”

“SpaceX doesn't have to lose for Blue to succeed. What the U.S. Needs is it needs two SpaceX's. It needs two launch companies competing vigorously against each other to try to give us the most capabilities as a country, commercially, civilly, from a defense per…”

“If asked, we will step up, and we will move heaven and earth to get to the moon first.”

“Google's also looking at it. Jeff Bezos is looking at doing it through, you know, through his blue blue origin rocket company.”

“Bezos-backed Blue Origin is launching a satellite network for enterprise data center and government customers, TerraWave. The company aims to begin deploying the first of 5400 and Eight satellites in the fourth quarter of 2027, so little over, a little under t…”

“There is this problem, you know, people are still throwing away rockets. And like, we really didn't see anybody actively working super hard to like, you know, attack that problem with rigor, combined with the fact that we thought we had a pretty good idea on h…”

“It's only the second company in history to land a rocket booster after SpaceX.”

“So over 10,000 people work there. 25 year project, as I mentioned, but the idea of hiring 10,000 people and rocket scientists”

“One of the reasons the Blue Origin moved a little bit slower than SpaceX is that they leaned a little bit harder on the exquisite system going really big, and Elon had this idea of, like, let's try and make a whole bunch of small things that we bundle together…”

“The difference between SpaceX and something like Blue Origin that started about the same time you know, I think Blue Origin's, like, coming on now, but they've had 20 years where SpaceX has just been lapping them, it's, like, taken over the entire rocket busin…”

“If your rocket is too big, all of a sudden, there's only, like, three suppliers in the whole country where you can get castings made, and now you're at a nine-month, every iteration takes nine months, right? And it's just, it's too slow.”

“We do training for Lockheed Martin, Boeing, SpaceX, Blue Origin you know manufacturing companies across the country, across the world.”

“Meetings at Amazon and Blue Origin are unusual. When we get new, when new people come in, like a new executive joins, they're a little taken aback sometimes, because a typical meeting, We'll start with a six-page narratively structured memo, and we do study ha…”

“I, to me, the sub was far safer than a Blue Origin or a SpaceX. I mean, obviously that looks insane now, but it imploded.”

“You can't launch with ULA because they're inconsistent. You can't launch with Blue Origin because they're inconsistent. You can't launch with the Europeans in general because they're inconsistent. SpaceX is the only solution”

“They were focused much more on the human side of space flight, and frankly, what won me over was the engine technology. Blue Origin had a completely different architecture, so I could work on a more complicated machine.”

“You know, I had worked at SpaceX, I was at the time working at Blue Origin, and both of those companies to me felt like first movers, and it just struck me that the next wave shouldn't be duplicating the first movers. There's got to be something added on, or s…”

“Our first handful of employees were Former co-workers of mine from SpaceX and Blue Origin, including my boss from SpaceX and my boss from Blue Origin.”

“I mean, today, the manned space flight is a reality TV show. And in fact, the cutting edge of manned space flight is space tourism. That's what Blue Origin and SpaceX and others are gearing up for, and there's just no reason to take a fragile human up there.”

“He was the first employee.”

“In order for Jeff to achieve his ambitions, he needs deeply technical people. And this is the simplest way to basically turn them off because this is not what technical people do.”

“When you fund a space company, you're paying, you know, that money doesn't just like go into space and just vanish. [991] Sam Parr: Yeah. [991] Sam Parr: I think Blue Origin has like, 3000 employees, I think. [995] Sean Puri: When he spends the money, it's g…”

“It's just totally classless. It shows that Bezos has a competitive streak, which is just not Graceful, I would say. And I think there's a little bit of bitterness there.”

“Blue Urgent's done 20 some odd flights, two of which went south and probably would have existed resulted in death. So I think five to 10% of Blue Urgent's fight flights would have killed.”

“My prediction is Bezos is going to come back, and he's going to announce that he's going to be the CEO of Blue Origin.”

“Quite frankly, I think this is a brain fart that the people around him are telling him smells like perfume and they should be telling him, dude, what are you thinking?”
