Blue Origin has postponed the New Glenn rocket launch carrying NASA’s Mars ESCAPADE probes due to unfavorable weather. This delay occurred just before new federal restrictions on commercial spaceflights took effect, requiring Blue Origin to seek an FAA exception. The mission aims to study Mars’ atmospheric loss, with the launch now tentatively rescheduled for November 12th.
