@Kemp The fact it was able to move away from the launch equipment, correct itself, and climb in altitude is an incredible feat. Can’t wait to see what the 7th vehicle brings!

And just over 2 years since tweeting this, I’m SO EXCITED to announce that I’ll be joining the Rocket Lab Team in Long Beach! It’s tough to leave my Florida family and friends, but so grateful for this wonderful opportunity. It’s time to get to work. 🚀🚀🚀

From the beginning, New Shepard was designed to fly above the Kármán line so none of our astronauts have an asterisk next to their name. For 96% of the world’s population, space begins 100 km up at the internationally recognized Kármán line.
