The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) closes both the SpaceX Starship Flight 7 explosion and its blue origin on the new Glenn-1 landing failure.
Causes of the star ship Flight 7s In January this year, “quickly planned dismantling” well -documented. In summary, during the flight, there were more powerful vibrations than expected to increase the stress on the drive system. The next hardware fault resulted in the destruction of the star ship vehicle. The explosion took place on the Turks and Caicos Islands in the southeast of the Bahamas.
Faa in question“SpaceX has determined 11 corrective action to prevent the reorganization of the incident. Faa confirmed that SpaceX has applied corrective actions before the flight.”
The flight, which took place in March two months later, ended with the explosion of the star ship vehicle; The investigation into this incident continues to be clear. That Flight 8 The explosion, the guard, “Return to the flight of the star ship vehicle is based on public security. SpaceX, FAA may not start again until the acceptance of the latest Mishap investigation report or returns to flight detection and returns to all other license requirements.”
In addition, the investigation into the fate of Blue Origin’s new Glenn-1, which has successfully accumulated its burden but could not achieve a successful landing, was also closed. According to FAA, “New Glenn’s restarting motors was an inadequate inadequate that prevented the re -introduction from occurring and caused the loss of the scene.
“The Blue Origin has determined seven corrective action to prevent the repetition of the incident. FAA will confirm that the blue origin has applied corrective actions before the launch of the new Glenn-2 mission.”
Blue Origin gave some additional details. post Regarding the report x. The three Be-4 engines were not properly intimidated, which condemned the descent attempt to failure.
As for corrective actions, Blue Origin said that corrections will focus on repulsive management and motor bleeding control improvements.
He continued: “We hope to return to the flight in late spring and we will try to download the booster again.”
Blue Origin launched its new Glenn-1 mission at 0703 UTC on January 16, 2025. Rocket, which works with seven be-4 engines, successfully released the Blue Ring Pathfinder load into orbit. However, an ambitious stretch target was not met to save the first stage on the hymen. The three Be-4 engines were revived, but Telemetry and then the scene disappeared. ®
