We’ve stacked the aft and forward propulsion modules of the Blue Ring Flight Vehicle 1 into the Propulsion Integration Tool, or PIT, which guides the modules during installation and holds them in a final vehicle configuration. Up next: inter-module welding and acceptance testing,

Blue Origin is excited to collaborate with NASA to study how Blue Ring can support high-value science destinations that have historically been difficult and expensive to reach using traditional methods. Blue Ring dramatically changes the cost curve of building science.
