Blue Origin's reported New Glenn return slips to January 2027
CNBC reported on Nov. 5 that it viewed a Wednesday memo from CEO Dave Limp moving New Glenn's return to flight to January 2027, later than the earlier end-of-2026 target, because Cape Canaveral pad reconstruction slipped. The Financial Times reported the memo first, and The Verge attributed the January date to both accounts. Blue Origin has not posted the date. The May hot-fire damaged the pad ahead of a launch that had been set to carry 48 Amazon Leo satellites.
