  1. I.S.S.?! Blue Origin has never, and will never go to the I.S.S. They don't even orbit. Hey NBC News, pull your finger out of your fanny.

  2. I believe This went really well the thicker space craft did well and even with such a great explosion the rocket cared for the crew. I LOVE THE CONFIDENCE THIS craft and size HAS

  3. Cool, it can fly over and take pictures of certain states in America, that don't have clean 💦 Water and do nothing about it.

  4. Feel like the government is behind this🤷🏻‍♂️

    They can't get their 100X more expensive SLS off the ground and are being EMBARRASSED by the private sector

  5. The spin doctors at the Kremlin are envious…

  6. What's with the effing press release? Where's the news? You didn't even say that the rocket blew up.

  7. Would have liked to have seen a live feed of the control room at the moment of failure.

  8. INTERESTING if it was SpaceX it would be ALL OVER THE NEWS and also NBC would put A EXPLOSION,HUGE EXPLOSION!!! ITS UNSAFE….
    Blue Origin…oh its just a mishap……oh its just anomaly……

  9. this is how america concealed the truth about american flu in 2017 –
    which turns out to be covid 19 !!!

  10. Blue origin is no way near space x , space x is maybe like 10-13 years ahead of blue origin

  11. Retro thrust my —, dust cloud from massive collision with the Earth

  12. I saw no "Retro Thrust System". That thing hit the ground HARD

  13. 🙄 mortals 💣🤷‍♀🤣

  14. Units displayed in miles per hour and feet for space stuff? Really? Is Blue Origin some kind of Flintstone rocket company from the Stone Ages? Please, please let the Blue Origin engineers not be using antiquated imperial units to do rocket science. 🤷

  15. Oh a cargo mission …
    Did Blue Origin give ANY guaranty on this one.. ?

  16. Jeff will figure out a way to sue.

  17. I think we just found the new press secretary, with a little training state the opposite blame someone else and out of a hundred statements lie 400 times.

  18. The crew (if crewed) would have sustained multiple and serious injuries.

  19. Looks like a failure to me, it’s even called a mishap, but they say the flight went as intended, the capsule landing was hard.

  20. Hate to see it fail, but love to see the survival mechanisms work outside of a planned test

  21. This was a CATASTROPHIC failure that occurred at Blue Origin. It must be acknowledged as such.

    I warned you Jeffrey The Bozo Clown 🤡 they were going to shut down your company. Now look what you have gotten yourself into. Optics.

    Since you are a so called, "Alpha Male" I am going to walk all over your short little self and teach the world this is how you treat a so called, "Alpha Male" who is an out of control tyrant.

    ο Δίας
    θοθ
    Όσιρις

  22. Survive the explosion to break your spine on that landing.

  23. my old highschool had an experiment on that rocket😂😂

  24. Well, this is the point of iterative testing, you get data even if it “fails”, figure out what went wrong and try to fix it for next time

  25. it was like watching fox channel. there goes, perfect launch and its into space, well almost, this has been a test of the emergency deployment capsule, went exactly as planned, bye for now.

  26. Meanwhile, back at SpaceX……

  27. Mission failed successfully

  28. What are they lauching

  29. With all the blatant contradictions, for a second I thought this was the Russian troop withdrawal , oops, I meant troop redeployment in Ukraine.

  30. "Retro Thrust System"

    You mean the GROUND!???

  31. that was a HARD landing !!!! did the crew survive ?

  32. 😀😀😀 I want to congratulate Blue Origin on a successful capsule jettison…Everything seemed to work like it should if ever needed to save lives on board so that’s something to cheer about!!!!👍🤜👍

  33. It looks like a crash landed

  34. It looks like that capsule came down hard. And landed on its side. Not a good thing.

  35. Old People with Old Thoughts Doing New Things.

  36. That was pretty funny. This chicks a real hoot 😂

  37. It was sort of nice to see that even if things were to go wrong the crew would be able to survive.I grew up in different times and when I watch the launch of a rocket I am always thinking about it even though I don't want to.

  38. giant metal white member entering space.The ultimate culmination of imperialistic colonization…If anything at least paint the rocket black to be more analogically correct
