Space News Week 1: SLS, New New Glenn, Blood in Space, PLD and much more
We analyze the monstrous new configuration of Blue Origin's New Glenn (9x4) and why the Crew-12 mission is vital to avoid dying on Mars. We also provide an update on the critical status of the Artemis SLS rocket and the historic Spanish launch by PLD Space.
🚀 In today's video, we break down the real engineering behind the headlines: This week we go inside the "engine room" of the space industry. From the SLS tower failure to the Crew-12 medical experiments aimed at preventing blood clots and cognitive impairment during interplanetary travel.
But the main event is Blue Origin: Jeff Bezos is going all out with the Blue Moon MK1 in the vacuum chamber and, above all, the unveiling of the New Glenn 9x4, a beast capable of putting 70 tons into orbit and competing head-to-head with Starship.
We wrap up with a look at the Orbex bankruptcy, the "suicide" comet C/2026 A1, and PLD Space's milestone with the Miura 5.
