Blue Origin’s sole New Glenn launch pad at Cape Canaveral remains heavily damaged from the May 28, 2026 static-fire explosion of the first stage, which was traced to a BE-4 engine oxygen valve. Repairs, valve modifications, and fault-tree analysis are still underway, with return-to-flight targets slipping into late 2026 or 2027. New Shepard suborbital operations have been paused since January to redirect resources toward lunar lander work, eliminating any near-term flight tests. With no scheduled static fires or launches possible in the next 18 days, traders assign a 97% implied probability against another explosion by October 31. Only an unforeseen rushed ground test or regulatory waiver could alter the outcome in such a compressed window.
