Blue Origin said the 'capsule escape system functioned as designed' after the booster failed on its New Shepard rocket

The rocket company owned by the Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has suffered its first launch failure - with an escape system flinging the crew capsule to safety.

Pictures show flames shooting from the engine about a minute into flight and the capsule firing off from the rocket's nose.The mission on Monday was crewless and contained dozens of experiments, but is the same system used for launching people to the edge of space.
