[Blue Origin aims to achieve multiple New Glenn launches per week by 2030] October 17th, Blue Origin plans to increase the launch frequency of its New Glenn heavy-lift rocket to multiple times per week by 2030, setting ambitious production capacity and operational goals in order to challenge SpaceX’s dominance in the global launch market. The plan calls for significant expansion of manufacturing capabilities, launch infrastructure and operational reliability.
