00:00If you ask me, brilliant. And then there's Blue Moon. Blue Moon is designed for longer missions.
00:08And that's precisely why issues like thermal management, durable heat shields and cryogenic
00:14propellant storage play a central role. This lunar cargo lander can deliver 3 metric tons
00:20of cargo to the lunar surface in a single launch on New Glenn. This lander was originally intended
00:27as a competitor to Starship, but it can also be seen as a complement to it. Mark I is smaller,
00:35more targeted and optimized for scientific payloads, demonstration missions and precise
00:41landings. The fact that Blue Origin plans to deploy Blue Moon Mark I as early as the second flight of
00:48New Glenn is a strong signal. However, the deployment of Amazon's LEO internet satellite constellation,
00:55formerly known as Kuiper, could take priority. Both missions, however,
01:01will likely still launch in the first half of 2026. It shows confidence in the rocket,
01:06that in the integration and the mission planning.
