Blue Origin has filed with the US Federal Communications Commission to deploy up to 51,600 satellites for Project Sunrise, an orbital data center constellation aimed at AI computing. The satellites would operate in sun-synchronous orbits to complement terrestrial infrastructure. The proposal follows similar plans from SpaceX and others.
One week after its second successful New Glenn launch, Blue Origin revealed plans for rocket enhancements, including a super-heavy lift variant. The upgrades aim to boost payload capacity and reliability. The company outlined phased improvements starting with the next launch in 2026.

NASA's twin ESCAPADE spacecraft launched aboard Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket on November 14, 2025, marking the first operational satellites on the new launcher. The probes, built by Rocket Lab, feature easter eggs including kiwi bird graphics honoring the company's New Zealand roots. The mission will study Mars' space weather after a two-year journey.
NASA has awarded Blue Origin a contract to transport its VIPER rover to the Moon's south pole. The deal, part of the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program, aims to explore potential water ice resources. The mission is set for late 2024.
