Salut à tous,
Voici l'acte de naissance de l'activité spatiale institutionnelle de Blue Origin :
https://www.af.mil/News/Article-Disp...ce-agreements/Blue Origin is honored to enter into a Launch Services Agreement (LSA) partnership with the Air Force to leverage our commercial, heavy-lift New Glenn launch vehicle for national security space (NSS) missions. New Glenn is a single-configuration, operationally reusable launch vehicle powered by seven BE-4 liquefied natural gas rocket engines and offers significant performance margin for all NSS missions.
The LSA partnership enables rapid buildout of NSS-unique New Glenn infrastructure such as vertical payload integration capability and a launch site at Vandenberg Air Force Base as well as completion of NSS certification activities.
Blue Origin is proud to serve the NSS community and is committed to providing safe, reliable access to space for the nation.

Gradatim Ferociter!
C'est Elon Musk qui va être content de partager ce si savoureux gâteau avec un 3ème larron (le deuxième étant ULA)
