Blue Origin reset the countdown clock with a new liftoff time of 3:55 p.m. EST. We are now in terminal count.
NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration Dynamics Explorers) mission to Mars is just minutes away from launch, with its twin spacecraft perched on Blue Origin’s massive New Glenn rocket inside the payload fairing. The second launch of Blue Origin’s heavy lift rocket is set to lift off from Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space […]
Live broadcast coverage has begun for the launch of NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission. Blue Origin is targeting 2:57 p.m. EST for the second launch of its New Glenn rocket that will send ESCAPADE’s twin spacecraft to mid Earth orbit on their journey to Mars. Watch Blue Origin’s broadcast here.
Weather officials with Blue Origin predict a 95% chance of favorable weather for today’s launch of NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission. The ESCAPADE mission is the first coordinated multi-spacecraft orbital science mission to Mars. Its twin orbiters will take simultaneous observations from different locations around the Red Planet. The observations […]
NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia is supporting suborbital rocket launch operations during a window extending from Nov. 14 -21, 2025. No real-time launch status updates or livestream will be available.
NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration Dynamics Explorers) mission will study Mars’ real-time response to the solar wind, helping us better understand climate history of the Red Planet. The ESCAPADE mission is the first coordinated multi-spacecraft orbital science mission to the Red Planet. Its twin orbiters will take simultaneous observations from different locations around Mars, […]
Launch of NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission is scheduled for Thursday on a Blue Origin New Glenn rocket from Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is targeted for 2:57 p.m. EST. Here’s a look at some important launch milestones. All times are approximate: TIME […]
Launch day is here for NASA’s ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission to Mars. Blue Origin is launching the ESCAPADE mission from Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, on the second flight of its heavy lift rocket, New Glenn. The twin ESCAPADE spacecraft sit inside the payload fairing atop […]
NASA postponed the launch of its ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission on Nov. 12 due to highly elevated space weather activity that evolved into the most intense geomagnetic storm of 2025. The next launch attempt is today, beginning with a launch window that opens at 2:57 p.m. EST. Several eruptions on […]
NASA integrated the Artemis II Orion stage adapter with the rest of the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket on Wednesday in the Vehicle Assembly Building at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Built by NASA engineers at the agency’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, the adapter connects the rocket’s interim cryogenic propulsion […]
