Awesome Astronomy - Have Blue Origin Already Lost to SpaceX?

The 365 Days of Astronomy

Ralph Wilkins hosts.

From Aug 5, 2022.

Blue Origin rocket developments seem to have been in development for decades. They've only just got their sub-orbital New Shepard rocket launching and, even now, they aren't launching that often. Their orbital New Glenn rocket keeps getting delayed and might even be obsolete to SpaceX rockets if it ever delivers.

With Elon Musk's SpaceX leading the way in commercial spaceflight and Branson's Virgin Galactic offering an alternative, has Jeff Bezos merely spent a lot of money on Blue Origin that he won't be able to recover?
