Van Horn (United States) (AFP) – Images show the moment a Blue Origin capsule fires emergency thrusters to separate from its booster rocket, around a minute after launching from Blue Origin’s base in west Texas. An uncrewed Blue Origin rocket carrying research payloads crashed shortly after liftoff on Monday, but the capsule carrying experiments escaped and floated safely back to Earth, Jeff Bezos’ space company said. Images of the rocket crashing are not shown in the footage made available by the company.
