It used to be getting a fast car or a bigger house. The signs are always there. When you make money, you spend it just as easily.
Some want to be a Rocket Builder as a side job and is pulling off stuff NASA would only now be in planning meetings for.
Other, with a Musk type mood and wanting to have a dick measuring contest to see who makes that better rocket.
In this case, it’s one to Musk just for not doing this now. I know some or his blew up in the past, but this race to the moon is a new (actual) line of news and gets going before I’m gone.
Bezos can just blow up many millions of rocket pieces for nothing and build another one. That is called F/U Money, when there ain’t nothing left to spend it on.
Anywho: Here’s and Excerpt:

Jeff Bezos’s “Blue Origin” rocket erupted in a massive explosion during a launchpad test after a hot-fire test went wrong, sending smoke flames and debris soaring miles into the sky.
Nearby homes shook as a bright orange plume erupted above the launch pad, billowing into the night sky over Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Thursday.
Bezos’s aerospace company, Blue Origin, was conducting a routine prelaunch static fire test when the vehicle exploded.
The heavy-lift New Glenn rocket was reportedly being prepared for its fourth overall flight in early June, which was scheduled to deploy a batch of 48 Amazon Project Kuiper low Earth orbit (LEO) internet satellites.

Fortunately, no one was injured, Bezos confirmed.
“All personnel are accounted for and safe,” Bezos said on X. “It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it. Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It’s worth it.”
The satellites are designed to compete with billionaire Elon Musk’s Starlink network — by providing high-speed, space-based internet service to users around the world, according to Reuters.
The 322-foot-tall New Glenn rocket has launched three times previously and is classified as a heavy-lift launch vehicle, capable of carrying massive payloads typically ranging between 20 and 50 metric tons, as Blue Origin aims to compete with SpaceX’s Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets.
