Still can't believe this really happened! @BlueOrigin's New Glenn Stage 1 was successfully landed, recovered, and returned safely back home! Hopefully the first of many more to come! Special thanks to all involved making these epic shots possible! 🔥 📽️ @NASASpaceflight

I don’t care what anyone says about Pegasus XL, or air launched rockets in general, they’re so cool. Also Pegasus is launched by the last flying L-1011, I mean come on. (Old livery on Stargazer bc old pic)
Air launch is back on the menu! Katalyst Space Technologies has selected Northrop Grumman’s Pegasus XL rocket to provide launch services for the upcoming Swift Observatory Mission. Launch is scheduled for June 2026.
