One year ago today - the second launch of Blue Origin’s New Glenn. The first stage booster, Never Tell Me The Odds, became the first NG booster to land, making Blue Origin the second company to land an orbital class booster.
How has it already been a year? Time moves too fast.

Griffin-1 has completed acceptance testing!
Now back in Pittsburgh for final integrations at the facility housing the Moonshot Museum, the lander is preparing to carry 10 payloads from six countries to the Moon.

is it appropriate to post cool projects on Twitter? Here's what I built in my senior year of hs (last year). flew 40k and mach 2.8, custom 3" N-class moonburner, had an onboard custom Geiger counter that got some pretty cool data. made all the composites, machined everything, etc

MROW. Ignitors Rocketry has successfully cold flowed their first liquid engine after a lot of hard work from the team. Special thanks to the Brazo Country Volunteer Fire Department Precinct 3 for allowing us to cold flow and ensuring the safety of our members and the public.

Earlier today, I had the honor of dedicating a recovered piece of our New Glenn booster bearing the American flag to the veterans of Blue Origin. It reminds us that not every mission goes as planned, but our commitment to the mission never wavers. To the more than 1,900 veterans at Blue: thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Space twitter is never unanimous on anything and this is as close as we will ever get:

A UC Berkeley-led NASA mission has made spaceflight history. On Nov. 7 and 9, ESCAPADE’s twin spacecraft successfully executed the first-ever powered gravity assist for a deep-space mission — firing their engines as they swung around Earth to set course for Mars.

Our biggest Leo payload yet is heading to the pad.
Leo Vulcan 1 (LV-01), our first launch on ULA's Vulcan rocket, is targeting liftoff this Friday, Nov. 13 at 12:54pm ET, carrying 40 satellites on the first of 38 missions with @ulalaunch.
New Amazon-funded infrastructure at the Cape enables ULA to prep two Vulcans at once, so LV-02 can follow within weeks of a nominal LV-01 mission.

Lucy: 1
Odysseus: 0
The Lucy spacecraft has officially reached the Jupiter Trojan asteroid region, just 5 years after launch — half the time it took Odysseus to get home from his voyage to the Trojans.

Early this morning, Gold completed its powered Earth gravity assist on the heels of Blue, which completed the maneuver on Nov 7 — a first (and second) for a NASA mission. The twins are safely on their way to Mars!

I've watched Team Blue pour years into building the systems that make lunar permanence a reality. Today @NASA recognized that work with multiple Moon Base program awards. I couldn’t be prouder of this team.
New awards. New mission updates. More progress toward a Moon Base.
We're advancing commercial lunar deliveries, a nuclear-powered rover, launch and orbital transfer services, and infrastructure to support a sustained human presence on the Moon: nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-a…

Relativity's Terran R will launch Impulse's transfer stage to carry a lunar lander!!

NASA has announced that the PROMISE rover will be delivered to the Lunar South Pole by a Blue Origin Blue Moon Mark 1 in late 2028.
Once an experimental test-bed for the Curiosity Mars rover at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the now lunar-bound robot will conduct science and demonstrating technology necessary for Artemis and Moon Base.

NASA has announced the lunar rover 'Promise', a Mars rover backup will be deployed on the Moon by Blue Origin's Blue Moon Mk1!
