  • Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket is scheduled to launch on Sunday, marking its first attempt to reach Earth orbit, which poses a significant challenge to SpaceX.
  • The New Glenn rocket stands 30 stories tall and represents years of development aimed at capturing market share from SpaceX's Falcon 9.
