📰 News we're reading

• New Glenn test explosion investigation underway as Huntsville-built engines remain central to program (256today.com) — Blue Origin’s rocket engine testing at Redstone Arsenal remains a key part of the New Glenn program even after last week’s dramatic test explosion in Florida. While no injuries were reported, investigators are still assessing launch pad damage and potential schedule impacts, which could indirectly affect Huntsville-built engines and local jobs tied to NASA’s Artemis and lunar missions.
