Why is New Glenn so much bigger than Falcon Heavy but has less …
Aug 24, 2021 · If you compare the New Glenn to the Vulcan 2C, you can see that New Glenn gets considerably more mass to LEO, but falls off pretty fast as C3 increases. This may be because the BE-3U is less efficient than the RL-10, that the New Glenn upper stage stages much earlier than Vulcan's, which is less efficient for high energy payloads, or that the ...
What is the TLI payload capacity of New Glenn? : r/BlueOrigin
Oct 23, 2021 · New Glenn doesn't go to TLI. New Glenn is a Super Heavy Lift Launch Core. A lot of people aren't paying attention or don't know about the effect of a rising sea level on Cape Canaveral. Cape Canaveral has about 20 years of use left in it, and that is if it isn't hit with a Category 5 hurricane in the meantime. Bezos knows what it means.
New Glenn payload mass to LEO is 18% - 38% greater than Falcon …
Mar 9, 2017 · Based on this we can estimate a triple-cored New Glenn getting 2.5 times more payload. If the expendable NG is at 64 mt payload that would put the triple-cored at ca. 160 mt. This is greater than the Saturn V payload and greater than the max payload of the SLS in its final version. For one thing, it could launch a manned lunar landing mission.
Blue Origin sure seems confident it will launch New Glenn in 2024
Dec 13, 2023 · Of course, there's a lot for Blue Origin to test and validate before New Glenn is ready to fly. First, the company's engineers need to fully assemble a New Glenn rocket and raise it on the company's sprawling seaside launch pad …
When should be expect to see integrated testing of New Glenn
Sep 15, 2023 · Depends on if the first New Glenn hardware gets to the pad for the fueling tests and static firings by the end of this year or early next year or not. I've heard that it's looking as though the 2nd stage might make it to the pad first before the 1st stage and will be static fired on the mini-TE that's been spotted rolling around out at LC-36.
What is the actual likelihood of New Glenn launching EscaPADE
Based on that, I think it’s a stretch to say New Glenn will have a launch before the end of 2024. Ground testing, integration, etc take time. Additional hiccups could come from Vulcan’s first launches and flight cadence, if they either reveal issues or …
New Glenn Dry Mass? : r/BlueOrigin - Reddit
Jan 18, 2022 · Considering they havent changed the design of New Glenn publicly since 2016. id say they have settled on a design The most you can say is they removed the 3 stage variant which was probably due to the 33% increase in thrust on the BE-4 due to the ULA deal
Introducing: New Glenn : r/space - Reddit
Mar 7, 2017 · The New Glenn can be configured as both a two and three stage vehicle, and will launch an estimated 35,000 to 70,000 KG to LEO, compared to the Falcon Heavy's estimated 54,400 KG to LEO. It's scheduled for test launch sometime before 2020, compared to the Falcon Heavy test flight scheduled for Q2 or Q3 2017.
When will New Glenn launch? : r/BlueOrigin - Reddit
New Glenn looks like a great rocket and I'm looking forward to seeing it fly, but based on previous track records, RocketLab is going to push harder towards meeting their 2024 launch date than Blue is towards 2022 for New Glenn. I fully expect that Blue can launch New Glenn well before RocketLab Neutron, I'm less sure that Blue will.
Cost per kg to LEO of various launch vehicles, past, present
As for New Glen, Payload 45,000 kg, 7 x BE-4 Engines. 'The cost of Blue Origin's BE-4 engine, which is being developed for the company's New Glenn rocket, is estimated to be in the range of $10-20 million'. Ok, so if I be conservative and take the low end at $10 million.
