NASA said on September 29 it added Blue Origin's New Glenn 9x4 launch service to the NASA Launch Services II contract under the annual on-ramp clause, making that configuration eligible to compete for future missions. The addition is not a mission award; New Glenn 7x2 is already on NLS II. NASA described NLS II as multiple-award IDIQ contracts with ordering through June 2030 and performance through December 2032.
