Amazon founder Jeff Bezos intends to build an international launch facility to compete with Elon Musk and SpaceX.
Blue Origin is currently looking to build a new site to begin launching its rockets outside of the United States, according to company CEO Bob Smith. The company is also seeking to acquire new partnerships and accelerate scaling its space launch services. A location has not been chosen, Smith noted, as the negotiations are currently in the early stages. However, starting an international rocket launch facility would give Blue Origin a jump-start on the international market.
Blue Origin made news by being the first company to launch, land, and reuse a rocket in 2015, but it has struggled to keep up with SpaceX and Musk's majority control of the space market.Amazon announced in April 2022 that it would use Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket for up to 27 launches, hoping to release 3,236 satellites into orbit. These satellites will power Project Kuiper, Amazon's attempt to provide broadband service internationally.
NASA announced on Friday that it had signed unfunded collaborations with Blue Origin, SpaceX, and several other space companies to send multiple satellites and craft into low Earth orbit. Blue Origin will specifically focus on commercial space transportation to get crew into space as needed.
