Flight record

Counts are launches filed under BO’s own name in The Space Devs’ Launch Library register. They are not a count of missions or payloads: a spacecraft that flew on a contracted vehicle is credited to the operator that flew it.

Who flies for them, and who they fly for

An operator owns the rocket and runs the count, and it is the operator’s name the launch schedule filters by. A customer funds the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. Plenty of organisations are both. BO is counted below in whichever role the current manifest actually gives it.

No scheduled flight in the current window names BO while being operated by somebody else.

How this is counted: a scheduled launch is treated as a customer flight when this organisation’s name or abbreviation appears in the launch name, mission name or programme and somebody else is flying it. Mission descriptions are not searched, and the window is one batch of the next launches worldwide, reaching to 2026-12-31 00:00:00Z — so both counts are a floor, not a complete manifest.

“T-0 known to” is the register’s own precision on the launch time — a date good only to the month is shown as such rather than counted down as if it were exact. A go-probability appears only where the operator published one for that flight; Delta-V does not calculate it and it is not a forecast made here.

Common questions

How many launches has Blue Origin flown?

Blue Origin has 41 launches on record under its own name, of which 39 succeeded and 2 failed. The register counts launches flown under an operator's own name, not missions or payloads it contributed to.

What is Blue Origin's success rate?

Blue Origin has a lifetime launch success rate of 95.1%, calculated as 39 successful flights out of 41 attempts.

When is Blue Origin's next launch?

Blue Origin's next launch inside Delta-V's manifest window is New Glenn | Blue Ring-1, scheduled for 2026-12-31 00:00:00Z from Launch Complex 36A. The register files that time with a precision of M. A launch time is a no-earlier-than target and can move.

Does Blue Origin fly its own rockets, or buy launches from another operator?

Blue Origin has 41 launches flown under its own name in the launch register. It is the operator on 1 flight in the current manifest window. An operator owns the rocket and runs the count; a customer funds the mission, supplies the payload and buys the ride. The operator filter on the launch schedule lists only the former, which is why a well-known agency can be central to a flight and still not appear on it.

Where is Blue Origin based?

Blue Origin is based in United States of America and the register classifies it as a commercial operator. It was founded in 2000.
