Blue Origin now plans to resume launches of its New Glenn rocket in January, after postponing the flight following a destructive launch pad explosion in May of this year. Over the past six months, the company has worked to rebuild the launch pad at Cape Canaveral, Florida, and has reshaped some of its rocket launch business processes. Blue Origin is developing a lunar lander, and as part of NASA's Artemis program, the New Glenn rocket is crucial for sending this hardware into space.
