藍源火箭"新葛倫"發射台上自爆照亮夜空 貝佐斯不好過馬斯克發聲安慰 【國際360】20260529@全球大視野Global_Vision

[00:00:00]company's new Glenn rocket exploded just a few hours ago on a launchpad at Cape Canaveral in Florida during what is known as a hot fire test. Blue Origin says no one was hurt. They called the incident an anomaly. Look at that cloud though of fire.

[00:00:20]US Space Force says an investigation is now underway, but by all appearances the fireball is a big setback for the Jeff Bezos founded company and its mission to the moon. Bezos himself writing on X quote, "It is too early to know the root cause, but we're already working to find it. Very rough day, but we'll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It is worth it."

[00:00:47]>> [music] >> No!

[00:01:31]>> It's a tough night in the space business for sure. Huge explosion, uh the largest I can recall at Kennedy Space Center certainly um one for uh the record books if you will.

[00:01:45]It's a terrible record to be setting. Uh this was during a test, so what happens is they put fuel onto the rocket and they hold down the rocket really tight and they fire the engine. And it seems that uh the there was a problem when they were firing those first stage engines and a massive explosion ensued.

[00:02:05]So, we've got a lot to learn about what went wrong here, as Jeff Bezos said, and we need to figure out what went wrong and and figure out how to move forward.

[00:02:15]>> And so, what does this do in terms of the timing of the missions that Blue Origin is doing right now, especially cuz we know they're working so intently towards trying to get humans back on the moon and trying to be a part of building a moon base?

[00:02:34]>> You bet. This is going to be a setback for sure for Blue Origin's plans and for NASA's plans potentially, because Blue Origin is a key partner in the next set of Artemis missions, which are ultimately designed to get our crew down to the surface of the moon. But the next mission, Artemis 3, was supposed to be the Orion capsule, which of course we all saw during Artemis 2 taking the astronauts around the moon. Another Orion capsule was supposed to dock with the landers that would have ultimately take them down to the surface in Earth orbit, and Blue Origin had one of those landers. So, it's going to be tough because that mission is supposed to happen next year, and it's hard to see how they're going to be ready to launch and operate their lander in Earth orbit on that kind of time frame.

[00:03:30]>> No, I don't think that's a rocket launch.

[00:03:43]>> Now, Moon Base 1 will be the first privately funded lunar lander mission in history.

[00:03:48]The Blue Origin Mark 1 Endurance Lander will deliver multiple payloads to the Shackleton connecting ridge, a strategic area of the lunar South Pole.

[00:03:57]In addition to flying two NASA science payloads, SCALP, a lunar retroreflector array, the mission objective is to demonstrate critical capabilities that reduce risk for the human landing system missions.

[00:04:09]On that [snorts] note, every mission in support of the lunar base helps us learn and de-risk crude missions, but this one is especially important because of the role Blue Origin plays in the Artemis program.

[00:04:20]>> T minus 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and liftoff of Falcon 9. Go SpaceX, go Starlink.

[00:04:42]>> Vehicle is pitching down range.

[00:04:48]Helium D chamber pressure is nominal.

[00:04:57]>> Stage one landing leg deploy.

[00:05:03]Stage one landing confirmed.

[00:05:13]>> We did hear that that did just complete, so I'm expecting them to reset that hold shortly.

[00:05:19]>> 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, ignition.

[00:05:30]We have the go.

[00:05:38]>> Switching down range.

[00:05:51]>> Booster after engine pressure nominal.

[00:06:00]>> A little over a minute into flight now.

[00:06:03]Vibrations chilling out here at Starbase Factory as we continue to watch Starship flight 12 arc out over the Gulf. The next major thing or through MECO.

[00:06:15]>> These separation.

[00:06:24]>> There you go. Successful hot staging separation.

[00:06:30]We are not seeing as many booster engines ignite as we expected. It's a lot more like a skydiver.

[00:06:37]Two engines left.

[00:06:44]Six left.

[00:06:45]Four left.

[00:06:48]>> [cheering] >> Three can't estimate.

[00:06:53]>> [cheering] >> Good shut down.

[00:06:59]Oh!

[00:07:00]>> [cheering] [cheering] >> Amazing.

[00:07:16]>> [cheering] [music] [music] [music] >> Good feel. [music] Feel good.

[00:07:48]>> [music] [music]
