“It’s this generation’s job to build a road to space, so that future generations can unleash their creativity.”

Our Mission

We’re Building a Road to Space for the Benefit of Earth

Blue Origin means "Earth." We envision a future where millions of people will live and work in space with a single-minded purpose: to restore and sustain Earth, our blue origin.

Mission Objective

Radically Reduce the Cost of Access to Space

Reusability is the key to radically reducing the cost of spaceflight. Our rockets, New Shepard and New Glenn, have been designed for reusability from the start. Each vehicle features a vertical take-off and landing architecture, enabling booster re-use up to 25 times with minimal refurbishment. They are powered by reusable, throttleable, liquid propellant engines.

Mission Objective

Harness the Vast Resources of Space

The road to space will be built from the limitless treasures of the solar system. We must learn to "live off the land" to fully realize the promise of space for the benefit of Earth.

Today, Blue Origin is learning to harness materials found in space to enable future exploration. This includes using lunar dust to ultimately produce solar power systems, power transmission cables, and oxygen for propellants and human consumption, as well as developing systems to identify water ice on the Moon's south pole for extraction of hydrogen to refuel our landers.

Mission Objective

Inspire and Mobilize Future Generations
