No one was aboard, only science experiments.A rocket crashed back to Earth shortly after liftoff Monday in the first launch accident for Jeff Bezos’ space travel company, but the capsule carrying experiments managed to parachute to safety in West Texas.
The New Shepard rocket was barely a minute into its flight when bright yellow flames shot out from around the single engine at the bottom. The capsule’s emergency launch abort system immediately kicked in, lifting the craft off the top. Several minutes later, the capsule parachuted onto the remote desert floor.
The rocket came crashing down, with no injuries or damage reported, said the FAA, which is in charge of public safety during commercial space launches and landings. Blue Origin’s launch commentary went silent when the capsule catapulted off the rocket Monday morning, eventually announcing: “It appears we’ve experienced an anomaly with today’s flight. This wasn’t planned.”“Booster failure on today’s uncrewed flight. Escape system performed as designed,” the Kent, Wash.-based company tweeted close to an hour later.Booster failure on today’s uncrewed flight. Escape system performed as designed.
