Blue Origin Rocket Explodes on Pad

Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket exploded during a static fire test at Cape Canaveral, registering as a 2.5 magnitude seismic event — but thankfully, no one was hurt. Debris may wash ashore in Florida, so officials urge residents not to touch anything and report sightings. An investigation is underway as NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman acknowledges the inherent risks of developing heavy-lift rockets. The blast comes shortly after Blue Origin was chosen for a NASA lunar mission — raising questions about potential delays or impacts on future moon exploration plans.
