Jeff Bezos' ambition to build a major force in the space industry has suffered a setback after Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket was destroyed during a test in Florida. The incident occurred during a static-fire test at Cape Canaveral, where engineers were preparing the heavy-lift vehicle for an upcoming satellite mission.
The blast created a massive fireball, damaged parts of the launch site, and halted plans for the rocket's next flight. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
