Why is New Glenn so much bigger than Falcon Heavy but has less …
Aug 24, 2021 · If you compare the New Glenn to the Vulcan 2C, you can see that New Glenn gets considerably more mass to LEO, but falls off pretty fast as C3 increases. This may be because the BE-3U is less efficient than the RL-10, that the New Glenn upper stage stages much earlier than Vulcan's, which is less efficient for high energy payloads, or that the ...
New Glenn vs Starship size comparison : r/BlueOrigin - Reddit
Feb 21, 2023 · As a result, I am happy that Space X have made Starship bigger than New Glenn, because that means Blue Origin when they come to build New Armstrong, and bigger rockets to come, will not have to waste all the money, and make all the mistakes that Space X have made [because development, especially the iterative development approach that Space X ...
What is the TLI payload capacity of New Glenn? : r/BlueOrigin
Oct 23, 2021 · New Glenn doesn't go to TLI. New Glenn is a Super Heavy Lift Launch Core. A lot of people aren't paying attention or don't know about the effect of a rising sea level on Cape Canaveral. Cape Canaveral has about 20 years of use left in it, and that is if it isn't hit with a Category 5 hurricane in the meantime. Bezos knows what it means.
New Glenn payload mass to LEO is 18% - 38% greater than Falcon …
Mar 9, 2017 · Based on this we can estimate a triple-cored New Glenn getting 2.5 times more payload. If the expendable NG is at 64 mt payload that would put the triple-cored at ca. 160 mt. This is greater than the Saturn V payload and greater than the max payload of the SLS in its final version. For one thing, it could launch a manned lunar landing mission.
What is the actual likelihood of New Glenn launching EscaPADE
Based on that, I think it’s a stretch to say New Glenn will have a launch before the end of 2024. Ground testing, integration, etc take time. Additional hiccups could come from Vulcan’s first launches and flight cadence, if they either reveal issues or …
Starship Vs New Glenn (Size Comparison) : r/SpaceXLounge - Reddit
Jan 26, 2019 · The New Glenn fairing and payload capacity is perfectly suited to dual launch two heavy GEO sats. New Glenn reusable can put 2 6.5 tonne sats to GEO transfer, as well as do big, heavy direct-to-GEO DOD launches. Large fairing + large payload = good dual launch vehicle. Mind you, I think New Glenn is a bit overpowered for the LEO market.
New Glenn Dry Mass? : r/BlueOrigin - Reddit
Jan 18, 2022 · Considering they havent changed the design of New Glenn publicly since 2016. id say they have settled on a design The most you can say is they removed the 3 stage variant which was probably due to the 33% increase in thrust on the BE-4 due to the ULA deal
Blue Origin sure seems confident it will launch New Glenn in 2024
Dec 13, 2023 · Of course, there's a lot for Blue Origin to test and validate before New Glenn is ready to fly. First, the company's engineers need to fully assemble a New Glenn rocket and raise it on the company's sprawling seaside launch pad …
Cost per kg to LEO of various launch vehicles, past, present
As for New Glen, Payload 45,000 kg, 7 x BE-4 Engines. 'The cost of Blue Origin's BE-4 engine, which is being developed for the company's New Glenn rocket, is estimated to be in the range of $10-20 million'. Ok, so if I be conservative and take the low end at $10 million.
Vulcan vs New Glenn : r/ula - Reddit
Oct 5, 2018 · New Glenn 2 stage (with reuse) expends the second stage avionics, 2 BE-3s (a much larger engine) and metal bodies that are ~30 meters long and 7 meters in diameter. Going by surface area, Vulcan is expanding only about 20% more metal then the "reusable" rocket and 5.4 meter diameter bodies should be cheaper then 7 meter bodies on a cost per ...
