Previously, the moon’s gravity could only be simulated for a few seconds at a time at NASA's zero-gravity research facility or for about 20 seconds during parabolic flights. Blue Origin ...
Jeff Bezos' rocket company gave NASA a brief taste of the moon's gravity Tuesday, without straying too far from home. Blue Origin launched the 29 lunar technology experiments to the edge of space ...
“New Shepard’s ability to provide a lunar gravity environment is an extremely unique and valuable capability as researchers set their sights on a return to the moon,” said Blue Origin’s ...
Blue Origin will launch its first suborbital rocket launch of 2025 today — and attempt a wild spin trick to mimic the moon's gravity during the flight — but if you want to see it live ...

Blue Origin may have the Artemis V moon landing, but the first moon landing since 1972—recently delayed to at least mid-2027—will be using SpaceX hardware. Elon Musk’s company won contracts ...
Blue Origin successfully launched its NS-29 mission, marking the first lunar gravity simulation on its New Shepard vehicle. The capsule rotated mid-flight to replicate Moon gravity for research ...
Blue Origin also intends to eventually use New Glenn rockets to send its Blue Moon Mark 1 lunar lander to the Moon, a mission expected to launch in 2025. SpaceX is not expected to see a lunar ...
“We are going to also be taking people and vehicles to the moon,” said Blue Origin vice president of in-space systems Ariane Cornell during a video livestream. “This is going to be our ...
NASA aims to build permanent science stations on and around the moon and eventually send astronauts to Mars with SpaceX's and Blue Origins' help. First, though, Blue Origin needs to strengthen its ...
