Blue Origin said all personnel were accounted for and safe, and that it would provide updates as the cause is persistent.<\/p>\n<p>The June 4 planned mission mentioned by CBS News involves deploying 48 satellites for Leo,an Amazon competitor to SpaceX\u2019s Starlink; those satellites were not aboard the rocket during the test. CBS also noted that the extent of damage-and how long Launch Complex 36 might be out of service-was not immediately clear. Blue Origin had launched its third New Glenn rocket the previous month, and Jeff Bezos posted that the company was disappointed but already working to rebuild and return to flight.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>A Blue Origin rocket exploded on Thursday night as the company conducted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/china-used-american-tech-to-create-hypersonic-missile-mccaul\/\" title=\"China Used American Tech to Create Hypersonic Missile: McCaul\">static fire test<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The New Glenn rocket, which was being tested at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, \u201cexperienced an anomaly\u201d during a \u201chotfire test,\u201d Blue Origin confirmed on social media, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox35orlando.com\/news\/blue-origins-new-glenn-rocket-explodes-during-static-fire-test-florida\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a> by WOFL.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll personnel have been accounted for.
