New Glenn Return to Flight

On May 28, 2026, we experienced a significant anomaly during a New Glenn Integrated Launch Vehicle hotfire test at Launch Complex 36 in Florida. I want to provide you with an update on the remarkable recovery and rebuild efforts since that day, and our path forward to return to flight this year. We continue to actively investigate the cause of the anomaly. The vehicle is highly instrumented with extensive data from multiple camera angles and sensors, giving us confidence in our ability to identify and correct the root cause. Early analysis points to the aft section of the first stage.
