Blue Origin New Glenn-2 Rocket & Reusable Booster: New Pictures
On November 18, 2025, Blue Origin welcomed Jacklyn and its fully reusable New Glenn first stage back to the Space Coast.
A Blue Origin New Glenn-2 rocket successfully launched NASA's ESCAPADE Mars Mission on November 13, 2025. This was the second mission to date for the New Glenn rocket series. Blue Origin also landed its fully reusable New Glenn first stage booster on the drone ship Jacklyn in the Atlantic Ocean.
The NASA Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers (ESCAPADE) Mars Mission will study the planet's unique hybrid magnetosphere. ESCAPADE will investigate how the solar wind interacts with Mars’ magnetic environment and how this interaction drives the planet’s atmospheric escape. It will take ESCAPADE about 11 months to arrive at Mars after leaving Earth orbit.
ESCAPADE is led by the UC Berkeley Space Sciences Laboratory. It is responsible for mission management, systems engineering, science leadership, navigation, operations, the electron and ion electrostatic analyzers, plus science data processing and archiving.
Key partners are Rocket Lab USA (spacecraft), NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (magnetometers), Embry Riddle Aeronautical University (Langmuir probes), Advanced Space LLC (mission design), and Blue Origin (launch).
