Blue Origin rebuilds its launch pad, expanding operations

From Fox 35 Mission Control, it's been five months since Blue Origin's rocket exploded right here on the launch pad. And now the launch tower is standing once again. But the company isn't quite ready to send rockets into space from that spot yet. Fox 35's Esther Bauer explains. Blue Origin is making incredible progress rebuilding its pad and also expanding operations on the Cape. NASA is also impressed with the speed, but there are still questions about what caused the explosion of the rocket. will be ready. From fully engulfed in flames to fully stacked in a matter of months, Blue Origin CEO sharing this time lapse over the weekend, showing every module stacked and standing at Launch Complex 36. The progress on the pad is excellent. Yeah, it's excellent. No doubt about it. That progress at the pad also praised by NASA leadership. I see that team fighting for every single day, figuring out how to shave hours off. Blue Origin is fighting to fly again because NASA is betting on the company to get the United States back to the moon we have over 100 NASA team engaged throughout return to flight NASA says they are working closely with Blue Origin to see them launch again before the year is over but while the pad is progressing some are still worried about the rocket itself we have heard basically nothing from Blue Origin about the status of the rocket Ken Kramer says the rocket is to blame for the explosion the company hasn't shared very much information about the issue and solutions but we don't know the status of any fixes they've made either on the first or the second stage but we do know the status of LC-36B Blue Origin used the explosion as a launching pad to start work on a second launch complex at the Cape the company is also laying concrete and setting the foundation for a second pad to support its new Glenn rocket That's where the major construction is going on of the new pad. And NASA says Blue Origin could start working back out at the pad, getting ready for a launch as soon as November, but still no official word when we will see another test flight.
